When Should You Replace a Rear Window?
Rear window replacement is necessary when:
- The glass is broken or cracked due to an impact, accident, or vandalism.
- Visibility is compromised due to cracks or damage.
Important:
A damaged rear window not only compromises your vehicle's safety but also affects your comfort. It can reduce visibility, allow water infiltration, and expose the interior to weather conditions. Get your rear window replaced as soon as possible!
Emergency Plexiglass Installation
If an immediate replacement is not possible, Carglass® can install a temporary plexiglass to secure your vehicle, protecting it from weather and theft until the new glass is ready.
A deposit of CHF 200 is required for this service, refundable only if the final replacement is carried out by Carglass® in Switzerland. The service includes cleaning up debris, preparing the damaged area, cutting the plexiglass, and installing it.
