Ensuring Your Vehicle is Repaired Right, Every Time.
Don't settle for "good enough." We provide comprehensive post-collision inspections to give you peace of mind.
What You See vs. What You Don't
After a collision repair, cosmetic fixes are easy to spot. But the most critical damage—to your vehicle's frame, safety systems, and structural integrity—is often hidden. Our service uncovers what lies beneath the surface.
The Danger of Hidden Flaws
Cosmetic Damage: This is the "tip of the iceberg" and includes issues like mismatched paint, small dents, or surface scratches. While unsightly, they don't typically compromise safety.
Structural Damage: This is the real threat. A misaligned frame, improperly welded components, or uncalibrated safety sensors can severely compromise your vehicle's ability to protect you in a future accident.
Even a minor accident can cause unseen damage to crumple zones or the underlying chassis. It can also trigger issues with airbags, collision sensors, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS) that don't always produce a visible dashboard warning. A professional inspection must verify these systems have been properly calibrated to function as intended. We bridge the information gap, turning trust into certainty with a data-driven inspection.
Inspection Process
We begin with a complimentary review to evaluate your concerns. If our initial assessment indicates the need for a more detailed inspection, we will discuss the associated fees. Should this further inspection reveal unsatisfactory repairs, the majority of charges can typically be covered by the insurance company and/or the collision center that performed the initial repairs.

Common Signs of a Subpar Repair
Learn to spot the red flags.
Uneven Panel Gaps
A door or fender is misaligned, with a wider gap on one side compared to the other. This could indicate improper re-installation or, more seriously, uncorrected frame damage, compromising structural integrity.
Mismatched Paint
The new paint has a different shade, texture, or gloss. This signals poor craftsmanship, reduces resale value, and may hint at other hidden shortcuts.
Unusual Noises
Whistling, rattling, or grinding sounds can mean improperly installed seals, loose components, or faulty brake repairs, posing a direct safety hazard.
Car Pulling to One Side
If the car drifts or the steering wheel is off-center, it points to alignment issues or severe uncorrected frame misalignment, a significant safety risk.
Dashboard Warning Lights
An illuminated airbag or ABS light means a critical safety system was not properly repaired or re-calibrated and may fail in a future crash.
Electronic Glitches
Malfunctioning windows, sensors, or infotainment systems can indicate unaddressed electrical damage from the collision, a common oversight in modern vehicles.

Legal & Professional Framework
We operate with full transparency and within the established legal framework. Our service is a quality assurance audit designed to empower you, the consumer.
Please note: Our inspection is a professional assessment of repair quality. It is not a state-mandated "Certified VIN Inspection," which must be performed by law enforcement for salvage-titled vehicles. Our service is ideal for verifying repairs *before* a state inspection or for any post-repair peace of mind.
