Folks seeking collision repair services often worry about whether their vehicle is too damaged to be repaired. Here are four ways to assess the chance that collision damage can be fixed.
1. Location
The location of the damage often dictates how easily the repairs will be performed. If a vehicle suffered a side impact with damage to the frame, that's a major issue. That level of damage would require repairs to the frame before more basic auto bodywork would be possible.
Even a minor car accident can leave your car with an unsightly dent. If the damage is only to a body panel, repairs are usually simple. You will typically be presented with three options. The best one to choose depends on both your budget and the extent of the damage.
Paintless Repair
The least expensive and quickest repair option is paintless dent repair. The auto repair tech will use special tools, like rubber mallets and suction cups, to carefully pull out and straighten the dent.
