Got scratches while parking in the garage.

Brand new 2024 Chevrolet Trailblazer LT with 3500 miles on it. 1.3L turbo.

Sideswiped someone hard today at 62 mph because they pulled out in front of me. Will it ever drive the same? Seems to be mostly cosmetic but maybe some mechanical damage too. Any advice?

With most car manufacturers trying to make self driving cars, and largely expected reduced car accident rates, are people worried about less work and $ as a body shop owner? My dad owns a body shop that does a few million a year in business. However, he's pessimistic towards new tech and i am more optimistic. How do ya'll feel?

Im wondering if i could just buff this out or its to deep . Really low on money and it breaks my heart. Nail is barely catching

During a bad snow storm a tree didn’t so much fall on my truck, so much as it slowly started to lean on my truck. So slowly I didn’t even notice that it was even touching until after a few months. I’m a horse girl (I know I’m sorry) and I really only use my truck during show season, Spring to early Fall, so I didn’t realize that the damage was more than superficial until a couple weeks back. I opened it up and found it was mildew-y because water was leaking in. I cleaned and have temporarily mitigated the mildew, but how can I stop the water leak? I’m not going to have money to fix it until July or August, and I live in Seattle so it’s definitely going to rain between now and then.

My uncle said to replace the weatherstripping “since it looks useless anyways” and go get a small tube of boat sealant, and seal up any holes. But I can’t even tell which might be the leaking park since it all looks broken to me.

How can I stop or slow down leaks until I can get it fixed?

Hi all,

Out of nowhere my door started creaking when I opened it and today it has pushed in the fender significantly. I will not open it again as it appears to be getting worse. Any advice?

This is a driver's side rear wheel well. The car was hit from the side and caused everything to cave in. I replaced everything that was bent. The subframe was bent and was replaced with a new one. The issue I'm having is that the new subframe will not accept the bolt on this side that was hit. The hole for the bolt is pushed in half an inch inward and horizontally.

In the picture is the new subframe with the swaybar bracket held on by just one screw on the left(where the metal is twisted inward). The other three bolts are on the subframe. This side is held up by a small metal bar.

I don't have heavy duty dent pulling tools. All I have is some wooden blocks and a strong glue gun with good glue. I want to move the metal to where the bolt holes will line up, which is roughly half an inch.

Since I have no real tools, I'm thinking about cutting two small wood blocks and glueing it on the two sides of the crease and using a small jack to push the two blocks out horizontally. Then I will pull it outward a bit with a car strap glued to a wooden block(not sure how I will do this)

Just backed into a car, anyone know how much this will be out of pocket?

This recently propped off of the rear drivers side of my 2018 Chevy sonic. It refuses to remain secure so I’d like to replace it.
