When to Replace Your Semi Truck Windshield

If your semi truck's windshield shows significant damage, it may require replacement to ensure safety and compliance with federal regulations. Cracks, chips, or shattered glass can obstruct the driver's view and compromise the structural integrity of the windshield, potentially resulting in an out-of-service order. Addressing such issues is crucial to maintain visibility and pass inspections.

Common signs that indicate the need for a windshield replacement include cracks longer than one inch in the driver-side critical viewing area, shattered glass blocking the driver’s line of sight, or chips and scratches distorting the surface

Other indicators are foggy, warped windshields caused by delamination, loose or damaged moldings allowing water intrusion, and damage that may be flagged during a Department of Transportation (DOT) inspection under 49 CFR § 393.60.
