Complete Back Glass Replacement
Back glass, also known as the rear windshield, is a vital part of your vehicle’s safety system. It offers rear visibility, helps maintain your car’s structure, and protects you from weather and debris. When the glass is cracked or shattered, replacement is often the only safe solution.
At National Auto Glass, we:
- Remove all broken or damaged glass
- Clean and prep the frame and surrounding area
- Install a high-quality OEM or equivalent glass panel
- Seal and test the new glass to prevent leaks and ensure durability
We work on sedans, SUVs, trucks, and more—foreign or domestic.
Why Back Glass Replacement Is Urgent
Unlike front windshields, rear glass often shatters completely when damaged. This exposes your vehicle to:
- Theft or break-ins
- Water leaks and mold growth
- Road debris entering the vehicle
- Cold or hot weather extremes
- Unsafe driving without rear visibility
Delaying repairs can put you and your passengers at risk. Our team offers same-day replacement service for most vehicles, so you can get back on the road safely without the wait.
Defrost and Antenna Integration
Many back windows are equipped with defrost lines and antenna systems. When we replace your rear glass, we ensure these features are professionally reconnected and tested to work properly.
Our process includes:
- Matching your vehicle’s specifications
- Aligning embedded defroster grids
- Reattaching rear antenna connections if present
- Testing the defrost function before completion
You don’t have to worry about losing these convenient features when you choose National Auto Glass.
