Is it serious if the chassis is scratched?

Scratching the chassis is a serious matter. If the car's chassis is scratched, it is necessary to check whether there is any leakage or deformation. If it's just a minor scratch, it indicates that the car's chassis is not damaged and there are no safety hazards. However, if you hear noises from the chassis while driving, you must stop and inspect it. It is recommended to drive the car to a repair shop and have it lifted for a thorough examination. If the damage is severe, a comprehensive inspection and repair are required. When designing sedans, to better reflect comfort and safety, the chassis is generally designed to be relatively low. However, once the car is driven on rough or uneven roads, the chassis is very prone to scratches. During the design of the car chassis, some protective measures are installed. The most vulnerable parts of the car chassis are the pipelines, such as brake hydraulic pipes and fuel pipes. Typically, these pipelines are hidden and protected in the grooves of the chassis steel plate. Unless the chassis suffers a severe impact, these pipelines are unlikely to be damaged.
