Vehicle Frame and Structural Repair

Your vehicle’s frame or unibody structure provides the foundation for proper alignment, handling, panel fit, and crash protection. Even a collision that appears minor can cause structural movement that is difficult to identify without a detailed inspection.

Lakewood Collision LLC provides frame and structural repair for vehicles affected by accident damage. We inspect key structural areas, measure vehicle geometry, and identify components that require straightening, repair, or replacement.

Correcting structural damage helps restore proper panel alignment and allows suspension, body, and safety components to operate from their intended mounting positions.

Signs of Possible Frame Damage

  • Uneven or unusually wide panel gaps

  • Doors, hood, or trunk that no longer close properly

  • Vehicle pulling to one side

  • Uneven tire wear after a collision

  • Visible bending underneath the vehicle

  • Steering wheel no longer centered

  • Cracks, folds, or deformation near structural points

Our Process

  1. Initial collision and structural inspection

  2. Vehicle measurement and damage identification

  3. Removal of components blocking damaged areas

  4. Controlled frame or unibody correction

  5. Repair or replacement of damaged structural parts

  6. Panel and component alignment

  7. Final measurement and quality inspection

Structural repairs should not be based on appearance alone. Our repair process focuses on restoring the correct relationship between the vehicle’s structural points and attached components.
