Unibody and frame repair in Detroit
CMD Collision is state-certified for unibody/frame repair and for collision-related mechanical repair. After a hard hit, we straighten your vehicle's structure on our Chief frame machine so it drives straight and protects you the way it was built to.
Signs your car may have frame damage
- It pulls to one side
- Uneven gaps between panels
- Doors, hood or trunk that don't close right
- Uneven tire wear
- The car sits crooked
How we repair it
We inspect the structure in person, then straighten the unibody or frame on a Chief frame machine and repair any collision-related mechanical damage under our state certifications.
How much does frame repair cost?
Frame straightening starts at $400. The final price depends on the damage and is set after an in-person inspection. On insurance jobs, the full estimate goes to your adjuster.
Will insurance cover frame repair?
Usually, as part of a collision claim. We work directly with your adjuster.
Is a car with frame damage totaled?
Not always. Your insurer compares the repair cost to the car's value, and we give them the full estimate after teardown.
