ADAS - Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems
ADAS System Calibration & Repair in Mississauga
Your car's been beeping at you more lately. That camera behind the rearview mirror stopped working after you got your windshield replaced. Or your lane assist quit helping on the 403 during your commute to Toronto. When your ADAS system in a car stops working, driving becomes much riskier.
ADAS systems help you brake faster, stay in your lane, and spot things you might have missed. Proper calibration reassures Mississauga drivers that their safety is protected after front-end work, giving peace of mind.
Your dash might not show a warning light, but uncalibrated ADAS can cause your safety features to malfunction, increasing your risk on Erin Mills, Meadowvale, and Churchill Meadows roads.

ADAS Recalibration After Windshield Replacement
That camera behind your rearview mirror reads lanes and spots cars ahead. When you replace your windshield, it moves. Even a millimeter means your ADAS system points in the wrong direction. Proper ADAS calibration fixes this with special targets.
ADAS Services for Collision Repairs
Small accidents move sensors. That parking lot tap at Square One probably shifted the radar behind your bumper. After any front or rear damage, all sensors need to be recalibrated: radar, cameras, and ultrasonic sensors.
Camera Calibration Services
Your car has 4 to 8 cameras that need to be perfectly aligned. Camera calibration ensures each camera sees what it's supposed to. After anybody works near a camera, it needs to be recalibrated.
Radar Sensor Alignment
Front and rear radar measure the distance and speed of other cars. If they're off by a few degrees, your adaptive cruise and collision warning don't work right. Common after bumper replacements around Brampton.
Parking Sensor Recalibration
Those beeps come from ultrasonic sensors in your bumpers. New bumper or paint work can move them. Then they beep at nothing or don't beep when they should.
Why You Need ADAS Calibration
Your car’s ADAS system needs attention after a windshield replacement, collision repair, bumper work, or hitting a big pothole on Hurontario, Erin Mills Parkway, or Dundas. Most drivers in Meadowvale, Churchill Meadows, and East Credit don’t know there’s a problem til something scary happens.
- Lane assist stops working or quits completely
- Forward collision warning beeps wrong or doesn't beep
- Adaptive cruise feels jerky or won't turn on
- Parking sensors miss obstacles
- Dashboard shows ADAS errors
- Safety features stopped after the windshield or bodywork
Skipping ADAS recalibration isn’t just risky – insurance might not cover you if something goes wrong.
Local ADAS Expertise for 25 Years
We've been doing ADAS calibration in Mississauga since most people didn't even know what ADAS meant—started right when cars with all these sensors and cameras became normal. Over the years, we've calibrated systems for pretty much every make and model - Honda, Toyota, BMW, Mercedes, Tesla, you name it.
The equipment we use isn't cheap stuff you'd find at a regular shop. It's the same calibration tools dealerships use, updated regularly to handle new car models. We've worked on vehicles from all around - Dixie, Cooksville, Streetsville, Erindale, Derry West, Churchill Meadows, Mississauga Valley, Lisgar, and beyond into Brampton, Oakville, Burlington, and Etobicoke. A lot of body shops throughout these areas send cars to us cause they know we have the proper setup.
What makes ADAS services tricky is that every manufacturer does things differently. Honda's system needs one type of calibration, Ford needs another, and European cars are a whole other thing. We've seen it all - from simple camera adjustments to complex multi-sensor setups that take half a day to get right. That experience matters when your safety systems need to work perfectly.

Frequently Asked Questions
It’s all the safety tech like lane assist, forward collision warning, blind spot monitoring, and automatic emergency braking. These systems use cameras, radar, and sensors to help you drive more safely.
Yes. That camera behind your windshield moved when the old glass came out. Even if it looks like it’s in the same spot, it ain’t lined up right anymore. Your lane assist and collision warning won’t work correctly without recalibration.
Your safety systems might not work when you need them. Forward collision warning could trigger too late or not at all. Lane assist might think you’re drifting when you’re not. Blind spot monitoring could miss cars right next to you. You’re putting yourself and everyone else at risk.
You can drive, but your safety features won’t work right. Some cars will display warning lights and turn off certain features. Others just keep running with miscalibrated sensors, and you won’t know til something goes wrong.
Static calibration is performed in the shop, with the car parked in front of special targets. Dynamic calibration needs a test drive with equipment plugged into your car. Some vehicles need both. Depends on the make and model.
Only when something happens that could have moved the sensors – accidents, windshield replacement, bumper work, wheel alignment issues. You don’t need it done regularly like oil changes. But after any front-end work, get it checked.
