Is Replacing the Front Bumper Beam Considered a Major Accident?
1 Answers
Repairing or replacing the bumper beam does not constitute a major accident. Below is an introduction to the definition of an accident vehicle: An accident vehicle refers to a vehicle that has suffered damage due to non-natural wear and tear, resulting in a decline in mechanical performance and economic value. Generally, accident vehicles are those with structural damage. Additionally, flood-damaged cars and fire-damaged cars also fall under the category of special accident vehicles. Here is an introduction to the function of the automotive bumper beam: 1. Evenly distributing force: When a vehicle is involved in a collision, the front bumper beam can distribute the energy generated from any form of offset or frontal collision as evenly as possible between the two energy-absorbing brackets, allowing the energy to be absorbed to the maximum extent by the energy-absorbing brackets and evenly transmitting the collision force to other energy-absorbing parts. 2. Protecting components: During low-speed rear-end collisions in urban areas, the front bumper beam plays a certain role in protecting components such as the fenders, radiator, hood, and lights. The rear bumper beam can reduce damage to areas such as the luggage compartment, tailgate, and rear light assembly.
