Will a slight bump to the chassis cause any damage?
1 Answers
If there are no abnormal phenomena with the car, there is no need to worry. During the design phase, the car's chassis is built to withstand a certain level of impact. Drive the car to a repair shop for a thorough inspection of the chassis. If the pipes are undamaged and only the steel plate has suffered scratches, applying some paint to prevent rust will suffice. Below is relevant information: 1. If the car's chassis is bumped, as long as the speed during the impact is not high and the scraping sound is not loud, the issue is generally minor and unlikely to cause significant damage. However, if there is a loud "bang," it could potentially dent or even puncture the oil pan. The oil pan houses the engine oil, and if all the oil leaks out, the lack of lubrication can lead to cylinder scuffing in the engine. 2. Symptoms of engine cylinder scuffing include: Reduced vehicle power and difficulty accelerating; increased engine temperature, unstable operating RPM, accompanied by signs of stalling.
