Why Frame Repair Matters

Your vehicle's frame is its structural backbone. Even minor frame damage can affect safety, handling, and long-term reliability. At Pete & Sons Body Shop, we use state-of-the-art computerized measurement systems to restore your vehicle's frame to factory specifications with pinpoint accuracy.


Signs You May Need Frame Repair:

  • Vehicle pulls to one side while driving
  • Uneven tire wear patterns
  • Doors don't align properly after an accident
  • Visible frame damage or misalignment
  • Vehicle was in a moderate to severe collision
  • Headlights aim incorrectly

Ignoring frame damage can lead to unsafe driving conditions, poor fuel efficiency, and accelerated wear on suspension components.
