Aluminum Repair Services
hile all-steel bodies were the norm on older cars, contemporary vehicles are constructed with aluminum body panels on a steel frame. This change allows modern vehicles to offer improved emissions ratings and better fuel efficiency compared to the gas-guzzlers that once ruled the roads. However, working with aluminum also requires an extra touch of expertise when it’s time for repairs. That’s why you should trust your vehicle’s aluminum collision repair to the certified experts at Garber Collision Center of Saginaw.
Aluminum is a light-weight, impact-resistant metal that serves as a fuel-efficient alternative to the heavy steel panels that were common on older vehicles. While modern vehicles are still made with a steel frame, aluminum body panels reduce the vehicle’s overall weight, leading to better gas mileage. With aluminum panels, manufacturers can meet the demand for better fuel ratings without sacrificing the versatility offered by an SUV or pickup truck.
However, aluminum behaves differently than steel and requires extra expertise when it needs repairs. While steel remembers its original form and can be manipulated back into the correct shape with ease, aluminum forgets its original shape once it’s been impacted. That’s why aluminum body panels require special handling to get them back to the correct shape following an accident.
Garber Collision Center of Saginaw’s certified service technicians have all the necessary training and tools needed to repair aluminum body panels after an accident. As aluminum and steel are corrosive to one another, our shop has separate, isolated areas where aluminum work is performed to reduce the risk of cross contamination. In these isolated areas, we’ll work the aluminum panels back into their original shape and have your vehicle looking as good as new in no time.
