ADAS Calibration
Modern windshields often carry a forward-facing camera that supports lane-keeping, automatic emergency braking, and adaptive cruise control. Replacing the glass can shift that camera's alignment by a fraction of a degree — calibration corrects it.
When to consider this service
Windshield was just replaced
Any windshield replacement on a camera-equipped vehicle is a candidate for calibration.
Warning lights for lane or braking systems
A dashboard alert for lane-keep or forward-collision systems can indicate a calibration issue.
Vehicle has a camera near the mirror
A small camera module mounted at the top-centre of the windshield is a strong indicator your vehicle uses ADAS.
Why it's worth doing right
Two calibration methods
Static calibration uses precisely positioned targets in-shop; dynamic calibration involves a guided road test. We use whichever your manufacturer specifies.
Documented results
You receive confirmation that calibration was completed as part of your service record.
How it works, step by step
- 1
Confirm requirement
We check your vehicle's make, model, and equipment to confirm whether calibration applies.
- 2
Static or dynamic calibration
Using manufacturer-specified targets or a structured road test, the camera is realigned.
- 3
Verification
Calibration success is confirmed through the vehicle's diagnostic system.
Vehicle considerations
- Calibration requirements vary significantly by manufacturer and model year — availability is confirmed per vehicle.
ADAS considerations
- Many newer vehicles use a forward-facing camera mounted to the windshield for lane-keeping, automatic emergency braking, or adaptive cruise control. If yours does, the camera typically needs recalibration after the glass is replaced so those systems continue reading the road accurately.
