Car Frame Repair: FAQ

Your car's frame bears the weight of your engine, transmission, and all other parts. Damage to the frame makes the vehicle less safe to operate, so it's important that you get your frame inspected after any type of collision, even a minor one. At O.C. Bumper & Body, our technicians provide expertise with frame repair. We'll make sure your frame is repaired with precision, and that your car is returned to safely drivable condition.

Is it dangerous to drive with a damaged frame?

It is unsafe to drive your car if its frame is damaged. If the frame is bent or otherwise compromised, then it could potentially snap and put you in serious danger. With a misshapen frame, your car will not be as protective during an accident, which puts you at greater risk of injury during a collision. Also, a bent frame can cause uneven weight distribution that results in poor handling.

How is frame repair completed?

At our shop, we used advanced computer technology to assist with frame repair. This allows us to return the frame as closely as possible to its original dimensions. Our top-of-the-line equipment creates the extreme force necessary to push and pull the frame back to within millimeters of its factory specifications.

It's estimated that about 50% of all accidents result in some degree of frame damage. There are many cases in which frame damage occurs during accidents that didn't even seem that serious.
