Will hitting the chassis with a stone cause any damage?
1 Answers
If the chassis is scraped but the car passes quickly without extensive or prolonged contact, it generally won't cause significant damage to the chassis. The chassis is most vulnerable to bottoming out, especially when it affects the fuel tank, engine oil pan, or the brake system's hydraulic lines. For peace of mind, you can visit an auto repair shop to have your car lifted and inspected.
