That may be true now, but a small chip or a crack can often turn into a large one that can rapidly spread across your whole windshield. It’s best to catch it early and ensure that you don’t end up with a spider web of cracks in your glass.

A licensed professional can actually repair most small chips and cracks. Generally, chips smaller than an inch and cracks smaller than three inches can be repaired without replacing the glass, and sometimes even larger depending on the shape and location of the damage.
Often these repairs are very affordable, especially when compared to replacing a whole windshield which can run into the thousands depending on the vehicle and the technology involved. Additionally, many insurance policies offer a special exception to their deductible for windshield repairs to get you to repair it before it turns into a major problem. See your insurance provider for details.
