Summer Forecast: Dry and Dusty | Windshield Replacement

Hot, dry and dusty conditions can take their toll on your car's windshield and have you needing windshield repair or replacement.

The forecasters at Accuweather released their predictions for the upcoming summer last week and the news isn’t good for those of us in California. The drought is supposed to get worse and even expand northward.

"It looks to me like they'll continue to get drier and drier, and by June and July, it'll have reflection on temperatures as well," AccuWeather.com expert long-range forecaster Paul Pastelok said. "It should get hotter across those areas."

That means we can look ahead to a hot, dry, dusty summer. While that’s uncomfortable for us, it’s also bad for your car because of the dust and grit that can settle, wrecking the paint and scratching the windshield and side and rear windows. It’s easy to dismiss those concerns about damage to your windshield, but, as fwvlaun.com, a Caribbean-based car dealership explains, ignoring your windshield’s condition isn’t wise.

Windshields are one of the top priorities of car owners when it comes to maintenance,” fwvlaun says. “Taking good care of your windshield doesn’t only make your car look excellent, it helps you to drive safely as well. In times of impact, windshields prevent the roof of your cars from caving in on every passenger inside. Also, they secure the air bag system to protect you from impact.”

F.W. Vlaun offers four tips to keep your windshield in good shape: Immediately repair cracks or chips; don’t slam car doors because of the intense vibration to the windshield that can worsen or spread dings; do not park in the sun; and keep your wipers in good shape. A lot of scratches are caused by sand particles and dirt in the wipers.
