Frame and Unibody Straightening

What is Frame and Unibody Straightening?

Your vehicle’s frame or unibody is its backbone, designed to absorb impact and protect you in the event of a collision. If the structure is damaged, it can affect your car’s handling, alignment, and safety. Frame and unibody straightening is the process of realigning the vehicle’s structure to factory specifications, ensuring that the car is safe to drive and performs as it should.
