How Can a Minor Accident Cause Major Damage?

If you’ve been in a minor traffic accident, you may think that there’s not much damage that can be done. Unfortunately, even a fender-bender can cause major damage to your vehicle – and your bank account. Here’s a look at how a minor accident can cause major damage and how you can tell if your car needs repairs.

 

Is your battery losing charge faster than usual?

Your car’s battery should last for a relatively long time. But if it’s quickly losing its charge after an accident, it could be a sign that there’s damage to the battery. In some cases, the damage may be due to a loose connection. If you notice that your battery is losing charge quickly, take it to a mechanic at National Auto Collision Centers.

 

Do you hear strange noises coming from your car?

If you start hearing strange noises after an accident – even if the accident was minor – it’s a sign that something is wrong. The noise could be coming from your tires, suspension, or any number of other parts of your car. If you’re hearing strange noises, have your car checked out by a professional as soon as possible.

 

Is there a leak under your car?

If you notice a leak under your car, it could be a sign of a serious problem. The leak could be oil, coolant, or any number of other fluids. If you see a leak, take your car in right away.
