Virginia added ADAS disclosure rules for motor-vehicle glass repair

Virginia's 2026 Motor Vehicle Glass Act took effect July 1, 2026. Before repairing or replacing damaged motor-vehicle glass, a glass repair shop must notify the customer whether the vehicle has an advanced driver assistance system and, when it does, whether manufacturer-recommended calibration or recalibration is needed, whether the shop intends to perform it to manufacturer specifications, and where the customer should go if the shop will not perform it. When calibration or recalibration is performed, the shop must provide written notice of whether it succeeded and direct the customer to a certified dealer or qualified specialist if it did not.
