What is structural repair on a vehicle?

Structural repair is the process of repairing or realigning a vehicle’s frame and structural components after a collision. These repairs help restore vehicle alignment, crash performance, and overall safety using OEM / manufacturer-approved repair procedures.

How do I know if my vehicle has frame damage?

Common signs of frame damage include uneven panel gaps, steering pulling to one side, suspension alignment issues, and doors that do not close properly. However, some structural damage is hidden and can only be identified through a professional structural inspection and computerized measuring process.

Can frame damage be repaired?

Yes. Many types of frame damage can be repaired using specialized frame measuring systems and structural repair equipment. The repair process depends on the severity of the damage and the manufacturer’s repair requirements.

Can hidden structural damage exist after an accident?

Yes. Hidden structural damage is common after collisions, even when exterior damage appears minor. Structural issues may exist behind body panels, bumpers, suspension components, or mounting areas, which is why disassembly and structural measurements are often necessary during the repair process.

Does Premier Coach Auto Collision follow OEM repair procedures?

Yes. Premier Coach Auto Collision follows OEM / manufacturer-approved repair procedures, factory measurement specifications, and manufacturer structural repair methods whenever applicable. This helps support proper vehicle safety, structural alignment, and manufacturer repair standards.

How much does structural repair cost?
