Does a dented car door need to be replaced?

[JaxonLee]

Whether a dented car door needs to be replaced depends on the severity of the dent: If the dent is relatively small, it can be resolved through metal sheet repair without replacing the door; if the dent is more severe, the door may need to be replaced. After a car door is dented, it should be promptly addressed to prevent rust. Car doors can be categorized by their opening methods: 1. Front-hinged doors; 2. Rear-hinged doors; 3. Sliding doors; 4. Gull-wing doors; 5. Folding doors; 6. Full doors; 7. Split doors. The functions of car doors are: to provide access for the driver and passengers, isolate external disturbances, and to some extent, mitigate side impacts to protect occupants.
