Impex Auto Glass’s Charlotte shop is at 5641 David Cox Rd, in the 28269 ZIP code in north Charlotte. From there the work reaches the whole city, at the shop or at your car. This page describes the six parts of Charlotte this website serves most, and how the work usually goes in each: where people park, which roads throw up the chips, and whether the shop or mobile service tends to suit better.
Charlotte Auto Glass is the Charlotte website of Impex Auto Glass. The same services apply everywhere on this page: windshield repair in Charlotte NC for chips, windshield crack repair in Charlotte for cracks, car window repair in Charlotte for door and back glass, and help with your claim in the glass insurance claims guide.
Uptown Charlotte
Uptown is the center city inside the I-277 loop, with the office towers, the courts and government buildings, and most of the city’s parking decks. Glass work here is mostly done where the car already is. A chip repair suits a deck well, because the windshield stays in the car and the job is short. A full replacement in a deck depends on headroom and whether the deck allows the work, so tell Impex the deck and the level when you ask for the quote.
Break-ins in decks and on the street are the other common Uptown call. If you come back to a broken door window, cover the frame with plastic and take your valuables, then send the form. A door window takes Impex 30 to 60 minutes, and you can drive right away.
University City
University City grew up around UNC Charlotte in the north-east of the city, along North Tryon Street (US 29), W.T. Harris Boulevard and I-85. The LYNX Blue Line light rail runs up North Tryon to the university, so plenty of cars here spend the day in a station lot or an apartment garage. Student and staff cars, research park commuters and the I-85 traffic between Charlotte and Concord all pass through.
I-85 is the road to watch for chips here, with heavy truck traffic all day. Fill a fresh chip quickly, before an afternoon in a sunny lot and a cold morning turn it into a crack. University City is a short drive from the David Cox Rd shop.
Mallard Creek
Mallard Creek takes its name from the creek and the old Mallard Creek roads that run north toward the county line. It is a mix of newer subdivisions, apartment communities and the offices and warehouses near I-85 and I-485. It is the area closest to the shop, so for most jobs here the simplest plan is to call first and bring the car to David Cox Rd.
Highland Creek
Highland Creek is a large planned community in far north Charlotte, close to the Cabarrus County line and I-485. Most homes have a driveway or a garage, which makes it a good fit for mobile service: a chip repair or a windshield replacement in the driveway while you work from home, weather allowing. Many cars here carry forward cameras for lane keeping and collision warning; after a new windshield, Impex performs ADAS calibration on site when the car requires it.
Derita
Derita is one of north Charlotte’s older communities, north of the center city and a short drive from the David Cox Rd shop. Its streets mix older single-family homes with newer building, and a lot of its traffic comes in from I-77 and I-85. Because the shop is so close, most Derita drivers bring the car in; if it is not drivable after a break-in or a broken back glass, Impex can come to you instead.
NoDa
NoDa, short for North Davidson, is the arts district north-east of Uptown, built around old mill buildings and North Davidson Street, with the Blue Line running along its edge. Street parking and tight lots are the norm, and a car parked on the street overnight is the usual setting for a broken door window. Mobile service works on the street when there is room around the car; otherwise the shop is a short drive up the road.
