GM's manufacturer documentation recommends static calibration any time the windshield is removed on a Safety Package-equipped Silverado. That's the official position — and we always make customers aware of it.
In practice, we do perform non-calibrated replacements on ADAS Silverados. In the vast majority of cases the system continues to function normally — the camera re-mounts to the same bracket in the same position. We've seen this consistently across hundreds of GM truck jobs.
Our recommendation: If you're using insurance, calibrate — the cost is covered and there's no reason not to. If you're paying out of pocket and your Safety Package was working perfectly before, a non-calibrated replacement is a reasonable choice. If warning lights appear after the job, bring it back and we'll calibrate at cost.

$95–$150 · We'll always tell you if replacement makes more sense
On a 2020+ Silverado with the GM Safety Package, the forward camera reads through the windshield glass. Even a chip that appears far from the camera field of view can cause calibration issues after resin injection — resin changes the optical properties of the glass in that zone, and the Safety Package can fail calibration or generate intermittent warnings as a result.
If the chip is within 8 inches of the camera mount area (top center of the glass behind the mirror bracket), we will almost always recommend replacement over repair on an ADAS Silverado. The math is straightforward: a repair costs $95–$150 with no warranty. A full replacement with calibration through insurance typically costs nothing. We'll give you an honest assessment either way.
