Common Auto Body Repairs
A guide to the most common auto body repairs
If you own a car, you’ve probably had it in for auto body repairs at one point or another. Whether it’s an errant cart in a parking lot or a collision with another vehicle, damage happens. We’re committed to getting your car back to like-new condition at Toyota of Orlando! Check out this guide to some of the most common auto body repairs and how we handle them.
7 of the most common auto body repairs
#1: Car collision repair
Unfortunately, auto body repairs from car accidents and collisions are some of the most common repairs out there. Car collision repairs can be anywhere from minor scratches to major bodywork and should be dealt with right away. Damage may seem minor at the time of the accident, but there can be issues hidden under the surface. This is especially true with newer cars that have special tech, like sensors, situated within the body of your Orlando Toyota.
#2: Paintless dent repair
Paintless dent repair is another common type of auto body repairs that we see at our Orlando Collision Center. PDR is when you have a dent in your car but the paint hasn’t been affected at all (and subsequently, does not need repair). These types of dents are common but not easy to fix at home. Our techs will use special tools to fix the dent and have the body of your car look like new without having to touch the paint.
#3: Car body paint
Paint damage is another super common type of auto body repairs that we see at Toyota of Orlando. Paint damage can occur from fender benders and other collisions. It can also happen from long-term exposure to the sun (a big problem here in Central Florida). Our techs will assess the paint damage and recommend a course of action to fix it, whether it’s a scratch or oxidization from sun exposure.
#4: Window and windshield repair and replacement
If you’ve never had a rock fly up and crack your windshield, consider yourself lucky. This is a very, very common auto body repair that we can handle for you at Toyota of Orlando. Our techs will gauge whether the chip or crack can be repaired or if your windshield needs to be replaced. Then we’ll get you back on the road in no time.
#5: Bumper repair and replacement
Bumper repair and replacement are also common auto body repairs that our techs handle. Bumpers are there to protect your Toyota’s body in the case of an accident, so they take a beating. Our techs will assess the bumper damage and decide if it can be repaired or if this part needs to be replaced altogether.
#6: Dent repair with filler
Larger dents aren’t always easy to repair, and sometimes body filler is the way to get your car back to its original condition. For deep and difficult-to-fix dents, our techs can assess if body filler is needed to smooth out the surface of your car. This type of auto body repairs also typically requires paintwork.
#7: Scratches
Scratches are another common issue and can occur for a multitude of reasons. Some scratches are surface and can be buffed out with minimal repairs needed. Deeper scratches are going to need more intensive repairs, including paintwork. You can try to handle scratches at home, but paintwork is best handled by an expert. Let the Toyota of Orlando techs take a look and give you a free estimate.
