Hot summer weather also causes a vehicle’s cabin air to expand, therefore adding air pressure on the windows. With a window chip or crack, the cabin air pushes against the window glass with pressure that can cause the damage to spread. In extreme cases, the entire window may crack.

Day-to-day costs are routine, like gas, parking, insurance, and oil changes. But there are also unforeseen repairs, like windshield chips and cracks that can compromise your safety.
