Frame & Unibody Repair

Many people are surprised to find out they have damage to the frame or unibody of their vehicle. Often, we hear client complaints such as “my car makes strange vibrations”,“my car leans to the right or left”, or “my car keeps going out of alignment”. This usually translates to damage in the frame or unibody of a vehicle. Anything from hitting a curb to improper towing to a buildup of rust in the undercarriage to running over debris on the road can send your car out of alignment. No matter how the frame and unibody damage has occurred, Kentucky Collision Center can correct it.

To correct frame and unibody damage, we use specialized frame repair equipment and have one of our highly trained frame repair technicians manage the job. Some of the primary issues you may encounter with your alignment include dog tracking, which is a vehicle that appears to move to one side of the forward motion of the vehicle. Tracking problems result when the front and rear wheels no longer track in line with each other. The driver may be unaware of the condition, though the vehicle often seems to lose control on bumps. Dog-tracking is normally easy to correct, but requires a shop technician trained in frame repair and wheel alignment. Our trained frame technicians uses several devices to spot and to monitor tracking, in the repair process. When repair is complete, we test tracking with four-wheel alignment equipment.

Without a skilled technician even the best frame straightening equipment cannot properly repair a vehicle. Advanced equipment completes the job faster, but never replaces the expertise of the mechanic.
