They are made of premium laminated glass that can endure a lot of force. However, it isn&#8217;t entirely indestructible. When it does crack, not only does it impact your car\u2019s aesthetics, it also obstructs the driver\u2019s vision. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Car windshield cracks can occur due to various reasons such as a falling branch, stones and rocks, collision with another car of a building or intentional vandalism. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Any accident can cause a crack, but cracks can be of different nature every time.&nbsp;In this guide, we will talk about different types of windshield cracks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-types-of-car-windshield-cracks\">Types of Car Windshield Cracks<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>There are different types of<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/car-windshield\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"> car windshield <\/a>cracks determined by the intensity of the blow they receive. Today, we will discuss 7 of the most common types of cracks on car windshields, and find out whether you need a repair or replacement.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-edge-crack\">1.

This break is caused by a stronger impact such as a stone or a rock. Although the breakage reaches this point, there is generally no risk that the glass will later crack. Since it harms visibility, it is advisable to repair the windshield.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-chip\">3.

Car <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/car-windshield-damage-summer-heat\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">windshields can also damage in the summer heat<\/a>. For instance, small chips can occur in summers if the car\u2019s AC gets busted. However, these cracks should never be ignored since they can easily form several tiny chips all over the windshield quickly.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-floater-crack\">4. Floater Crack<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As for floater cracks, they generally start from the central point of the windshield glass. It refers to the one that does not reach the edge of the windshield. The floater cracks usually occur about 2 inches away from the windshield. It tends to spread faster than other cracks, therefore you must pay immediate attention.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>These car windshield cracks can spread quickly if not fixed on time. Therefore, the cracks can usually be repaired once the height and width of the crack are determined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-combination-break\">5. <strong>Combination Break<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The multiple cracks that occur on the windshield are referred to as a combination of cracks. This type of cracks is quite hard to repair since multiple cracks occur instantaneously. Therefore, instead of repairing the cracks and chips, it is better that you replace them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-half-moon\">6. <strong>Half Moon<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Quite similar to the bull\u2019s eye, a half-moon cracks a piece of windshield glass. The only difference is that it comes off in a half-circle or moon shape instead of circular.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-stress-crack\">7.

You can diagnose the crack by moving a ballpoint over it. The type of windshield crack occurs due to a sudden temperature change. For instance, a windshield contract in cool weather and expands in hot temperatures.
