Automotive Repair & Body Work Shop in Vaughan

Fender Replacement or Repair

You parked your car at the rink, the mall or the coffee shop and when came out, you noticed that you had a dent in the fender. At first blush, it didn’t look so bad, but, upon closer examination, you have sustained damage. A collision repair in Vaughan is what you need to restore your car to safe operating vehicle. At the auto body shop, you learn that the dent is small enough to be repaired and you’re off to the races. In another instance, you have a larger dent and that will demand that the fender be replaced as much for safety reasons as the aesthetic reasons. The fender works with the bumper to help absorb front-end impact shock when you are in an accident and without a fender that is in perfect condition you could be in danger of serious injury should an accident occur.

Many times when you are in an accident, the bumper and fender will sustain damage. Both are working together to mitigate the force of impact, but they work independently. To understand the role of both, know that your bumper is affixed to the front of your car – the fender, on the other hand, is affixed to the frame of your car. Both require different methods for repair or replacement and for a fender, you need the services of a qualified service tech to know when the bumper can be saved or needs to be scrapped. What it comes down to here is the severity of the damage that the fender has sustained – small dents or superficial damage can be repaired to the point that you wouldn’t know that the fender had damage.

When you have a larger sized dent in your fender, you may need a replacement fender – structural damage may be lurking under the damaged area that could affect the frame and that is something to be avoided at all costs. But you won’t know about the problems until you bring your car to the Modern Automotive collision repair centre for evaluation.

Bumper Has Been Bumped & Requires Repair or Replacement

Your bumper is the first thing that will take impact during an accident if you are hit in the front or rear end. It helps deflect impact and works with the fenders to transfer the energy of the accident to the frame of the car. The plastic may be cracked or the bumper is out of alignment, and you think that it isn’t worth a repair. Think again, the foam coating that helps support the bumper functions can be irredeemable, when that happens you must invest in a bumper repair and or bumper replacement if the damage is more than negligible.

Another senario is if you got into a fender bender at the mall or a parking lot and you have bumper damage – it may be a small thing really, and you are thinking that a repair isn’t so important. But, think again, it is important for a number of reasons. A damaged bumper can the sign of more damage that lies just under the surface – locating it and correcting any problem that you don’t see prevents future problems. You have a foam-like substance under your bumper that can be rendered useless when pushed in – the foam substance is a shock absorber per se for a low impact crash. A car with a damaged bumper will cause the value of your car to erode and that is the last thing you want for your car – a small investment in the car can reap a good financial return when you.

Frame is Misaligned & Requires Straightening and Repair

Driving in traffic can be like running with the bulls in Spain, its hectic, can be chaotic, and a competition for lanes when an exit needs to be made. When driving in traffic, accidents happen, and you could be the victim of someone who collides with you and door is dented and possible frame damage may be lurking. A collision repair in Vaughan is the fastest way to determine frame damage and whether you need your frame straightened. Even a slightly bent frame can be dangerous and cause handling problems at low speeds and worse at high speeds – a collision repair will prevent any problems like those from occurring.

The most important part of your car, truck or SUV is something you never have seen, but your life depends on, the frame of your car. Without a solid frame to ride on, you are tempting fate in a bad way – that is why you need your frame to be straight. If you have been in an accident, one of the first things our collision repair shop will do is look at the frame to make sure no damage has occurred – your unibody frame is what holds the car together. The work to get your frame repaired or straightened is very meticulous and not everyone has the expertise or equipment to do it right.
