Two Methods, One Critical Goal: Restoring Your Safety Systems
When your windshield is replaced, your vehicle's ADAS cameras need recalibration to function properly. But not all vehicles calibrate the same way. Understanding whether your vehicle requires static, dynamic, or dual calibration helps explain why some shops can't properly service your vehicle - and why Ocean Auto Glass invested in complete facilities in both Lakewood and Monsey.
The calibration landscape is evolving rapidly. While traditionally Asian manufacturers required static calibration and European brands preferred dynamic, these lines are blurring. Many 2022+ vehicles now offer flexibility in calibration methods, though specific requirements still vary by model, year, and even trim level.
Dynamic calibration recalibrates your vehicle's ADAS through specialized driving procedures:
Technical Requirements:
Typical Duration: 30-60 minutes depending on traffic and route requirements
Common Models:
Important Note: Calibration methods are becoming more flexible. Many 2022+ vehicles that traditionally required static calibration now accept either static or dynamic methods. Our technicians verify the specific requirements for your exact vehicle.
Key Advantage: Can be performed at your location - truly mobile service
Static calibration requires precise indoor conditions:
Required Conditions:
Asian Manufacturers (Primarily Static):
Note on Honda: Some Honda models requiring static or dual calibration need 25 feet of space in front of the vehicle for proper target positioning, requiring our specialized facility setup.
Key Challenge: Cannot be performed mobile - requires our indoor facility
Dynamic Calibration Design:
Static Calibration Design:
Modern Trend: The distinction is becoming less rigid. Many 2022+ vehicles offer flexibility in calibration methods, with manufacturers providing both options to improve service accessibility while maintaining safety standards.
Certain vehicles require dual calibration - both static and dynamic procedures:
Honda Models (Prominent Examples):
Other Vehicles:
Process:
This dual requirement is why choosing a shop with complete capabilities matters - we handle both phases seamlessly.
Shops advertising "complete mobile ADAS calibration" are either:
Dynamic vehicles: Complete mobile service at your location
Static vehicles: Mobile installation + complimentary pickup for calibration
Dual vehicles: We handle both procedures seamlessly
Don't let anyone tell you they can calibrate your Asian vehicle in your driveway. Know what your vehicle requires and choose accordingly.

Complete windshield replacement with proper ADAS calibration - mobile or pickup service based on your vehicle's requirements.
Most Toyota vehicles require static calibration due to their engineering design. While some 2022+ models now offer either option, you cannot override manufacturer requirements. Our technicians verify your specific vehicle's requirements.
Static calibration requires significant investment: indoor climate-controlled facilities, level floors, specialized target boards, and manufacturer-specific equipment. Many shops avoid this investment and only service dynamic-calibration vehicles.
Our technicians verify requirements based on your vehicle's year, make, model, and trim level. Requirements can vary even within the same model year. We maintain current databases of all calibration requirements.
Most Honda vehicles require static calibration in controlled indoor conditions. Any shop claiming they can calibrate Honda Sensing systems outdoors is likely compromising accuracy or skipping the procedure entirely.
