Non-genuine car windows are made from less durable materials. This leads to the windows quickly deteriorating and becoming cloudy, according to Vadim Strelbitsky, Director of the Mechanical Repair Department at Avilon Kia.
Speaking of non-genuine cheap car windows, they are of low quality. This makes them vulnerable to impacts from stones or gravel. For example, even a small stone hitting the windshield can lead to a large crack, requiring replacement of the entire glass.
Low-quality windows often have uneven thickness and surface defects. This leads to image distortion and impaired visibility. This "effect" is especially pronounced at night or in bad weather, when the light from oncoming headlights reflects off the unevenness of the windshield, the specialist noted.
Cheap car windows also quickly become unusable. After just a few months of use, they can yellow, become cloudy, and get scratched under the influence of ultraviolet rays.
According to Strelbitsky, the desire to save on car windows can lead to additional expenses at a minimum.
It is important to choose only branded car windows with markings. These products are manufactured in accordance with certification requirements, and they undergo multiple checks for compliance with all quality standards.
When choosing a windshield, you should pay attention to the following criteria: the greater the thickness of the glass, the better; there should be no optical distortions, irregularities, or roughness on the glass.
