Windshield ADAS Recalibration API

Find out whether replacing a vehicle's windshield means its driver-assistance (ADAS) camera must be recalibrated, which calibration it needs (static, dynamic or both), and whether a mobile service can do the job. Covers US-market vehicles, looked up by the year, make and model the VIN decodes to.
