What Happens If the Undercarriage Is Scraped?
1 Answers
Drive the car to a 4S shop or repair shop for inspection. Most repair shops have undercarriage lifts, and once the vehicle is raised, any scratches or damage to the undercarriage surface will be immediately visible. If it's just a scratch on the steel plate, simply applying some paint will suffice. However, if the pipes are damaged, a thorough inspection and repair will be necessary. Here are some methods to prevent undercarriage scraping and damage: 1. Apply Undercarriage Coating: Automotive undercarriage coating can be sprayed on exposed areas such as the vehicle's undercarriage, wheel hubs, fuel tank, lower body panels, and trunk. After drying quickly, it forms a strong and elastic protective layer that not only prevents impacts from flying stones and gravel but also protects against moisture, acid rain, and salt corrosion on the undercarriage metal, preventing rust and ensuring driving safety. 2. Install an Engine Guard: The engine guard is a custom-designed protective device for various car models. Its primary purpose is to prevent mud from covering the engine and to protect the engine from damage caused by uneven road surfaces during driving. Not all car models come with this feature, so owners without it can choose to install one.
