At Santa Ana Mobile Auto Glass, we recalibrate the safety systems your vehicle relies on after a windshield replacement right here in Santa Ana, CA. Our mobile team handles ADAS calibration immediately after glass installation, so there's no delay or need to book another stop elsewhere.
Modern vehicles use forward facing cameras and sensors to help with lane centering, emergency braking, adaptive cruise control, and more. These features are part of the ADAS (Advanced Driver Assistance Systems), and they depend on exact camera alignment to function correctly. Even slight shifts during windshield replacement can cause those systems to respond too early, too late, or not at all.
That's why calibration isn't optional, it's part of restoring the vehicle's full functionality. We complete it onsite using tools that meet manufacturer specs and provide real time digital accuracy reports. You drive away with the confidence that your safety systems are ready and working as intended.

When the windshield is removed and reinstalled, even small shifts in the camera's position can change how it reads the road. A millimeter off can mean the difference between safe braking and a missed detection.
If the wheels or suspension are adjusted, the vehicle's geometry changes. Since ADAS relies on a clear understanding of the car's direction and balance, any such work can throw off the calibration, making it less reliable or inaccurate.
Some automakers require calibration at regular service intervals, especially on newer models. These recommendations help ensure that all systems continue to function correctly as the vehicle ages or after multiple small repairs.
ADAS calibration isn't a one size fits all process, your vehicle will require either static or dynamic calibration, depending on the manufacturer's design and the type of sensors involved.
Static calibration is performed while the vehicle is parked. It's typically required for systems that rely heavily on precise visual targeting, such as lane departure warning or pedestrian detection. This method uses specialized targets placed at fixed distances to simulate driving conditions.
Equipment & Time: Static setups require a controlled space, printed targets, and leveling equipment. The process typically takes 30–60 minutes, depending on the vehicle.
Dynamic calibration is done while the vehicle is in motion. It involves connecting diagnostic tools and driving at specific speeds on clear, marked roads. This allows the onboard camera to relearn its surroundings in real time.
Equipment & Time: Dynamic calibration requires a road test with a scan tool monitoring the system's recalibration. It usually takes 45–90 minutes, with driving conditions playing a big role.
At Santa Ana Mobile Auto Glass, calibration is included immediately after windshield replacement, no extra trips, no delays.
We follow manufacturer defined steps using tools designed specifically for ADAS recalibration.
Calibration is completed on the spot, right after your new windshield is installed.
Every calibration is digitally measured and verified to match factory standards, and you get the report to prove it.
You can request a quote by calling us directly, or submitting a quick online form. We provide mobile services to come directly to your location in Santa Ana, so your ADAS calibration is as convenient and efficient as possible.
You can drive, but the ADAS features may not work as intended. The system might misjudge distances, miss lane markings, or fail to respond to obstacles, which defeats the purpose of having it at all.
If your vehicle has features like lane departure alerts, forward collision warnings, or adaptive cruise control, it likely uses ADAS. Still unsure? We can check for you before or during service.
No. Calibration adjusts cameras and sensors, not wheels or suspension. But misalignment can throw off ADAS accuracy, so both may need to be addressed.
