Does Replacing a Car Hood Count as It Being a Salvage Vehicle?

[McBrooklyn]

Under the premise that the internal condition of the car remains unchanged, replacing the car hood does not classify it as a salvage vehicle. Below is a detailed introduction about salvage vehicles: 1. Overview: A salvage vehicle refers to a car that has suffered damage from non-natural wear and tear accidents, leading to a decline in mechanical performance and economic value. Generally, "salvage vehicles" are those with structural damage. Additionally, water-damaged cars and fire-damaged cars fall under the category of "special salvage vehicles." 2. Others: Minor rear-end collisions are one of the frequent accidents during vehicle use. To check if a car has been involved in a rear-end collision, one should open the engine hood and inspect whether the edge sealant strip is smooth and feels soft to the touch. If the sealant strip is uneven or feels soft, it indicates that the engine hood has been repaired.
