Dent Repair on Electric Vehicles

The PDR Process

Every day, our expert technicians work on the cars that come into our shop. The PDR process can remove a dent or ding from your electric vehicle without compromising the paint or hurting too much of your wallet. But how does the PDR process work?

Evaluating the Damage

The first step to any repair process is evaluating the damage that has been done. Where did the dent happen? How big is it? How can I reach the dent? After evaluating the dent and determining if it can be removed through PDR, the area around the dent is prepared for PDR.

Accessing the Dent

In most conditions, a technician will access the dent from the back side. This means that they will first carefully remove the trim panels, the taillights, and in some conditions, they might have to remove panels like the hood or trunk lid as well. 

Once the dent can be accessed, the technician can perform PDR to fix the body of your car. It is crucial that for this step of the process, you have an expert technician working on your car. 

Applying Slow Pressure

With the help of specialized tools, the body of the car is massaged so the exterior can be restored to its original position. Because of the expertise of our technicians, we can complete the PDR process on the same day you send us our vehicle.
