Does replacing the anti-collision beam count as a damaged vehicle?
1 Answers
Replacing the anti-collision beam does not necessarily classify a car as a damaged vehicle. A damaged vehicle refers to a car that has suffered damage from non-natural wear and tear incidents, leading to a decline in mechanical performance and economic value. Typically, this refers to vehicles with structural damage, including those affected by flooding or fire, which fall under the category of special damaged vehicles. The anti-collision beam is a device used in motor vehicles to mitigate collision impact by absorbing collision energy. It consists of a main beam, an energy-absorbing box, and mounting plates that connect to the car. These components effectively absorb collision energy during low-speed impacts, significantly reducing the force of the impact on the vehicle's body weight and providing excellent protection.
