Why Choose Professional ADAS Calibration?
Manufacturer-specific calibration equipment and certified technicians ensure your Advanced Driver Assistance Systems function correctly after windshield replacement. Precise calibration restores lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, automatic emergency braking, and collision avoidance systems to factory specifications.
Ensures Safety System Accuracy
Many newer vehicles use windshield-mounted cameras and sensors to read lane lines, track traffic, and trigger driver-assist features. After a windshield replacement, even a tiny shift in camera position can affect performance. ADAS calibration restores alignment to manufacturer specifications so these systems work the way they are designed to.
False Alerts Prevention
When ADAS is out of calibration, you may see incorrect lane departure alerts, inconsistent adaptive cruise control behavior, or forward collision warnings that trigger at the wrong time. In some cases, features may not activate when needed. Professional calibration helps reduce false alerts and ensures the system provides reliable support without distracting errors.
Manufacturer-Specific Calibration
Calibration is not one-size-fits-all. Each automaker has unique targets, measurements, and verification steps. Proper ADAS calibration uses manufacturer-required procedures and diagnostic checks to confirm your vehicle’s cameras and sensors are reading the road correctly and communicating properly with the vehicle’s safety systems.
Static and Dynamic Calibration
Some vehicles require static calibration performed in a controlled environment using precise targets and positioning. Others require dynamic calibration that verifies performance through driving conditions, and some need both. We determine which method your vehicle requires and complete the correct process to meet manufacturer requirements.
Calibration Verification
After calibration, diagnostic testing confirms alignment, clears related warning lights, and verifies system readiness. This final step helps ensure you leave with functioning driver-assist features and documentation that calibration was completed, which can be helpful for records or insurance.
Recalibration After Replacement
On ADAS-equipped vehicles, windshield replacement typically requires recalibration because camera placement can change slightly with new glass installation. Skipping calibration can leave safety features unreliable or disabled, which defeats the purpose of these systems. Recalibration helps restore proper operation and peace of mind.

ADAS Calibration FAQs - Cape Girardeau MO
What is ADAS calibration?
ADAS calibration is the process of precisely aligning cameras and sensors on your vehicle to manufacturer specifications after windshield replacement, ensuring safety systems like lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, and automatic emergency braking function correctly.
Why is ADAS calibration necessary after windshield replacement?
Windshield replacement changes camera positioning by fractions of millimeters, which is enough to cause ADAS malfunctions. Calibration restores precise alignment so your safety systems operate accurately and reliably.
How long does ADAS calibration take in Cape Girardeau?
ADAS calibration typically takes 1-2 hours depending on your vehicle's systems and whether static calibration, dynamic calibration, or both are required. Our technicians complete calibration the same day as your windshield replacement.
What happens if I don't calibrate ADAS after windshield replacement?
Uncalibrated ADAS systems may provide false warnings, fail to activate when needed, or stop working entirely. This puts you at serious risk since you can't rely on safety features like automatic emergency braking or lane keeping assist.
Which vehicles need ADAS calibration in Cape Girardeau?
Any vehicle with cameras mounted on or near the windshield requires ADAS calibration after windshield replacement. This includes most vehicles from 2015 and newer with features like lane departure warning, adaptive cruise control, or automatic emergency braking.
What is the difference between static and dynamic ADAS calibration?
Static calibration uses precision targets in a controlled facility while the vehicle is stationary. Dynamic calibration involves driving the vehicle under specific conditions so systems can learn and adjust. Many vehicles require both methods.
Can I calibrate ADAS systems myself?
No. ADAS calibration requires manufacturer-specific equipment, precision targets, calibration software, and trained technicians. Attempting DIY calibration will result in improperly functioning safety systems that put you at risk.
How do I know if my ADAS systems are working after calibration?
After calibration, dashboard warning lights should be cleared, systems should respond appropriately during test drives, and diagnostic scans should show no fault codes. Our technicians verify all systems function correctly before you leave.
Does ADAS calibration work on all vehicle makes and models?
We calibrate ADAS systems on all major vehicle makes including Toyota, Honda, Ford, Chevrolet, Nissan, Subaru, Mazda, Volkswagen, and more. Our equipment and training cover the most common ADAS systems in Cape Girardeau.
Is ADAS calibration required by law in Missouri?
While Missouri doesn't have specific ADAS calibration laws, vehicle manufacturers require calibration after windshield replacement to maintain safety system functionality. Driving with uncalibrated ADAS systems compromises your safety and may affect liability in accidents.
