What Happens If You Don’t Fix A Car Dent?

Other than compromising the aesthetic and general look of your, nothing serious occurs at first when leaving a dent to its own devices. Unfortunately, with time, a number of issues arise when you choose not to fix your car dent with Gunn Collision’s easy paintless dent repair:

  • Paint deterioration (cracking, flaking, peeling)
  • Rust formation
  • Door dents eventually compromise the structure of your vehicle, making potential accidents that much more dangerous
  • General corrosion at and around the dent

Why Opt For Our Paintless Dent Repair Service?

In the case of paint deterioration, leaving cracked, flaking, or peeling paint for too long could result in you needing to schedule an entirely new and avoidably expensive paint job later on. 

Rust formation can break down the metal around the dent, making it weaker and less likely to protect you by sustaining the force of another object during an unforeseen accident. Additionally, the old, worn-out look that rust causes majorly depreciates your vehicle, making a healthy profit less likely at the time of a vehicle trade-in or private sale. 

Door dents are particularly critical for repair as they warp the entire process of opening and closing the door. The last thing you want is to be involved in an accident where, upon being hit, the door jams in place due to the dent, preventing you from exiting the vehicle. 

Corrosion can have the same effect that all the aforementioned post-dent problems produce: costly repairs or dangerous consequences.
