What to do when a car has been involved in a frontal collision

Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Body

When your car suffers a frontal impact, the fear is that the vehicle may not be able to return to its original state, and that the chassis may somehow be bent, resulting in suboptimal functioning of the car in the future. There are means to restore the vehicle as if it had never been in an accident. As we see in the video, if the body shop we turn to has the tool to straighten the vehicle, then there are no problems: we can be sure that a thorough job will be done. Simply pulling the vehicle is not enough, as this will not bring it back to its original state. Therefore, the advice is to inquire about the equipment that the body shop we have decided to rely on possesses.
