Surviving the Mojave: Protecting Your Windshield in Las Vegas Heat

Heat is hard on glass

Parking in direct Mojave sun and then blasting the A/C creates thermal shock — the rapid temperature change that turns a small chip into a windshield-spanning crack in minutes.

Protect your glass

  • Park in shade or use a sunshade
  • Cool your car gradually before max A/C
  • Fix chips immediately — heat accelerates spreading
  • Ask about protective films and hydrophobic treatments
