Towing After an Accident
Driving your car after an accident is highly unadvisable because the event can lead to frayed nerves and undermine your ability to operate a vehicle safely. Besides, a collision can leave your car with several issues that might make it undrivable, including:
- Frame damage
If another vehicle or object crashes into your car, it may damage the components that support its structural integrity. Most drivers miss this issue because it’s often underneath, and they focus on visible dents and scratches, which can be dangerous.
You shouldn’t drive an automobile with a damaged frame because it can lead to another accident and put your life at risk. Plus, it may aggravate the problem and make repairs costlier. Just call Turk’s Collision for professional towing services.
- Steering problems
Components like suspension parts, tie rods, and strut bearings facilitate steering. Unfortunately, since they are closest to the ground, they are highly likely to sustain damage in a collision, causing defective steering. The shock caused by a car accident can also affect wheel alignment and lead to the same issue.
Driving an automobile with steering problems is exceptionally unsafe. Why? You can quickly lose control and ram into another vehicle, object, or human being. That is why you should let our tow trucks haul your vehicle after a collision.
- Defective lights
A considerable impact can damage your car’s headlights, indicator lights, brake lights, etc. And you need most of these to drive safely. For instance, you need headlights to navigate a dark road, indicators to signal other road users of a change in direction, and brake lights to tell other drivers your car is slowing down.
Since car lights are indispensable, driving without them is a terrible idea. If an accident has led to broken lights, hire our towing services, and our technician will move your car to a repair facility.
- Stuck doors
During an accident, a vehicle or any other object can hit your door and damage the locking system, restricting access from outside or inside. Or, it may be left with a huge dent and disfiguration that affects its ability to close properly. Either is a big problem because you need functional doors to enter and exit your vehicle and drive safely.
If you notice any issues, seek towing services from a reputable provider that offers pickup and delivery services.
