Saw this segment on MotorWeek and thought of a few MTC members needing to replace their cracked windshield, etc. I do NOT know if the Mavericks camera(s) will need to be re-calibrated but thought I'd post just in case. And many folks have other vehicles that have high-tech features like automated emergency braking, Lane-keeping/lane-centering assist, etc. I think even the non-360 trim levels have the per-collision and emergency braking safety features, do they utilize a camera?

My current 2009 Rav4 has none of these features, but my Lariat w/Lux Pkg will have all the bells and whistles . I like the idea of these safety features, but I'm now realizing the additional costs some repairs may require. Check out the above video to see how complex it is to re-calibrate the front cameras (specialized equipment, wheel alignment, ?full tank of gas?, etc).
Will this will qualify as my PSA post for 2022?
Just kidding, everyone be safe out there.
