Is Replacing the Side Panel Assembly Considered a Major Accident?
1 Answers
So-called accident vehicles refer to those where the main structure of the body is damaged. Below are specific details regarding this matter:1. Relevant Explanation: This means that only when the non-replaceable structural components of the vehicle body suffer severe damage can it be considered an accident vehicle. Exterior parts, chassis components, and replaceable parts without deformation of the main structure do not qualify as an accident vehicle.2. Impact of Side Panel Replacement: Theoretically, there is no impact. As long as the operation and modification do not involve the safety of the vehicle and the main load-bearing beams, there should be no major issues. The side panel includes the rear quarter panel. For household vehicles, the side panel refers to the large section from the A-pillar of the front door all the way to the rear taillight, including the inner frame, side beams, and quarter panel.
