What are the impacts after repairing a bent car frame?
1 Answers
After repairing a bent car frame, the following impacts may occur: 1. Reduced rigidity: The frame's rigidity may be somewhat lower than before the collision; 2. Increased fatigue: After repairing a deformed frame, internal stress may still exist. If the deformation was severe, it could accelerate frame fatigue; 3. Affected force balance: If the deformation was serious and the repair wasn't perfect, it might affect the vehicle's force balance to some extent, potentially causing alignment issues, uneven tire wear, or even tire blowouts; 4. Abnormal noises: There might be occurrences of abnormal noises or resonance; 5. Impact on resale value: If selling as a used car, it will certainly affect the selling price; 6. Impact on handling: If the deformation was severe but after repair the car drives without abnormal noises, alignment issues, resonance, or abnormal tire wear, then normal driving shouldn't be affected. However, if racing, some issues might arise, affecting handling performance.
