Mechanical Repair
The mechanical repairs that come with a collision, done under the same roof.
Accidents often damage more than the body. Motor City Automotive handles the mechanical side too, so you don't have to take your car to a second shop.
Mechanical work we handle
Suspension and steering parts, axles and driveshafts, radiators and cooling systems, and other components commonly damaged in a collision. We also take on emergency repairs other shops won't touch.
One customer's Mercedes-Benz CLS came in for a driveshaft and paint. Another needed emergency work on an Explorer that nobody else would take on. That's the kind of work we do every week.
Our process
Diagnose
We inspect and test to find everything that's damaged.
Estimate
You or your insurer get a clear estimate before work begins.
Repair
Parts are repaired or replaced to get it running right.
Road test
We drive it to make sure it runs, steers, and stops like it should.
