Hi Robert,

I was driving my 2018 Nissan Sentra the other day when a stone hit and cracked my windshield. The damage doesnâ€™t look too severe so Iâ€™m not sure if I should do anything about it. Do you have any advice?

Thanks,
Jennifer

Hi, Jennifer!

Iâ€™m sorry to hear about the damage caused to your 2018 Nissan Sentra. To get straight to the point, you should always do something about a cracked windshield.

Windshields play a role in the structural integrity of vehicles, meaning they help to keep you protected. If yours is compromised, it may not do its job properly in the event of a collision. Apart from this, a crack or chip could impair your vision while driving.

Depending on their size, some cracks and chips can be repaired so you should take your Sentra to a company that specializes in this as soon as possible.

Cracks and chips tend to get bigger over time, eventually to the point that theyâ€™re irreparable. In this instance you would need to get a new windshield which would ultimately cost you more money than getting the problem fixed: so donâ€™t let this issue linger.

Thanks for the question, Jennifer. Contact Kirkland Nissan, Washington again if you need anything else.
