What is the biggest Auto Body Repair Problem?

I have been in the auto body repair business for many years. I have worked at some good shops and some not so good shops. One of the most prevalent things I see on repaired cars is shortcuts on the repair. Either work that could have been finished properly with just a little more time spent on the repair. Sometimes it is leaving critical fasteners loose like on a bumper.

I inspected this vehicle at a shop for a customer and he was going to the lake with his boat the next day. What would have happened to his expensive boat if this bumper with the trailer hitch fell off on the highway? It surely would not be a good thing. At our shop we check every fastener with a torque spec before we let it leave our shop. Critical things, like wheels, bumpers etc. are important to your safety and well being. We surely don't want you to have another accident!

Also on the same vehicle a bed bolt was missing. Every part should be inventoried and accounted for in an organized fashion. There is no reason for this bolt to be missing. Take ten bolts out, put ten bolts in!


At All Precision Collision Repair we hold ourselves to a higher standard. This repair was done at one of the largest Toyota dealer ships in our area. This shop was on an Insurance company list of Select shops. I guess sometimes that may not be the best for you or your vehicle. See more examples from this vehicle and others that I have photo's of.
