ARE YOU UNHAPPY WITH YOUR COLLISION REPAIRS?

ARE YOU UNHAPPY WITH YOUR COLLISION REPAIRS?

An Unsafe vehicle means diminished value for your prized possession.

Does your collision repaired vehicle feel as good as new?

A collision can have all sorts of impacts on your car. When you get your vehicle repaired, it can look OK from the outside. However, your vehicle’s structural integrity underneath can still be damaged. Structural damage can compromise your car’s ability to protect you on the road, jeopardise your vehicle’s manufacturer warranty and put your life at risk.

A vehicle’s post-repair safety inspection involves experienced technicians and specialised equipment to assess the quality of the vehicles repairs both cosmetically and structurally. This then determines the vehicle’s ongoing ability to keep you safe on the road.

Any defects are identified and recorded in our in-depth reports. If we uncover any repair defects, we can assist you in making claims for ‘reworks’ – generally at no extra cost to you.

Your car deserves nothing but the best, BUT has your collision repairer done THEIR best for you?

Industry Method
vs OEM Factory Method

Original Factory Joint

When quarter panels are replaced, often time is saved by welding them to non-factory joints on the vehicle's side pillar. This compromises the vehicle’s ability to protect you in future accidents.

When centre pillars are damaged, the affected section is often cut out or patched instead of replacing the whole pillar. This saves time and cost, but also significantly weakens the body shell. This creates serious safety concerns that can lead to injury and death in future accidents.

Original Hinge Pillar

Hinge pillars are often cut in areas other than the original joint to save having to remove the dashboard, windscreen etc. This type of short cut repair creates major safety issues and can lead to injury and death.
