Repair of severe body damage (Peugeot 405)
In case of significant damage to the body and the need to replace a significant part of the parts, the work must be carried out at a maintenance station. If the body damage is the result of a strong impact, it is necessary to carry out a complete check of the body dimensions. The strength and shape of the entire body may change as a result of damage to individual parts. If the strength characteristics and dimensions of the body do not correspond to the norm, this may be the reason for the impossibility of proper control of the car. In addition, uneven stress will affect the steering, engine, transmission and may cause increased wear and tear, as well as complete disruption of their functions.
