Why won’t the window on my door work?

When this happens, usually there is a motor problem. But if your motor appears to be working normally, chances are something is wrong with your regulator. In any case, since motors and regulars are often distributed as a combined unit, repairs on either of these can be costly. But you would still save more money if you used our services.

^

How is a automobile windshield manufactured?

Windshields go through lamination process which involves conjoining two panes of glass with a vinyl layer in-between.   It is this vinyl sheet that gives the windshield its strength.  So, if your windshield gets hit by a rock, only the topmost layer suffers damage.

^

Which windshields does your company use?

Our windshields either meet or surpass the qualifications set forth by Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standards (FMVSS).  As far as brands, we use all of the well-known manufacturers ranging from LOF to Mopar.  Of course, if you do not like these brands, we will accommodate personal requests.
