Most common car glass failures
What are the most frequent breakdowns suffered by vehicles in Spain? Repairing, fixing glass, or avoiding a failure is essential if you want to travel without problems along the way. That’s why in this article we want to highlight the most common damage and what you can do to fix it — or better yet, prevent it.
Battery
The battery is one of the components that most commonly fails. The lifespan of a battery is around 3 to 5 years. Bearing this in mind, it is normal for drivers to forget to check it from time to time. To avoid any issues with the battery, it’s recommended to visit a workshop at least once a year and ask a mechanic to carry out an inspection. Don’t forget that if you’re not going to use the vehicle for a long period, it’s best to disconnect the battery.
Tyres
Tyres are another element that frequently suffers incidents, only behind car windows. This is a concerning fact, considering that tyres are constantly in contact with the road surface and are one of the keys to maintaining safety on the road. It is recommended to replace them with new ones whenever necessary. Remember that tyres deteriorate over time and no longer offer the same level of safety as before.
Engine
Obvious as it may seem, the engine is another of the components that suffers the most breakdowns in Spain. There are numerous reasons why your engine might experience an issue, so if your engine shows any kind of abnormality, we recommend you visit your car glass workshop as soon as possible so it can be checked and the problem identified. The most common breakdowns are related to cooling, lubrication, a faulty spark plug, or even a build-up of exhaust gases.
