Car care can be an overwhelming process. Being the owner, it is important to ensure your ride is being maintained and treated well throughout the duration of ownership. There are several things to keep an eye on and get taken care of as soon as possible, aside from routine maintenance under the hood or with the tires. Your car’s exterior needs to be taken care of as well. Toyota of Clermont has pulled together a list of auto body repair tips in order to keep your car in tip-top shape.
Tip #1: Replace or repair any broken windows
Broken windows or cracked windshields can be a real cause for concern. Although you may still be able to drive your car under these conditions, you run the risk of hitting a bump in the road that brings the whole window to bits. Our Clermont auto technicians advise getting your windshield and windows fixed immediately to avoid further damage.
Fun fact: Many Florida car insurance agencies will repair cracked windshields for free!
Tip #2: Get your car frame aligned
It’s important to be aware of how your car is driving. If you feel it being tugged to one side or the other you apply the breaks or if you’re beginning to notice a shaking sensation as you’re driving, it may be necessary to get your frame corrected. The frame is the foundation of your vehicle and an important thing to consider for auto body repair.
Tip #3: Remove any dents and minor scratches
Minor dents and dings aren’t the end all be all in the world of auto body repairs. If you drive around with a small indent in your passenger door from a run-in with a shopping cart, it won’t affect the way your car runs in the least. However, it is a cosmetic concern and it is recommended that you make an appointment with our Clermont Toyota body shop to correct any exterior blemishes.
Tip #4: Schedule collision repair
