Get Winter Ready!

Have you noticed the cooler weather here in North Texas? Slowly but surely, winter is coming. Temperatures don’t usually drop below freezing here, but at Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, located in Lewisville, we know that it is important to stay weather aware and take necessary precautions to protect yourself and your vehicle. If, or when, the more severe weather makes its way into our area, make sure you have a plan and follow precautions to reduce the risk of denting your vehicle. 

Be Aware

When you go to leave somewhere in your vehicle you should already have a plan. Be sure to plan your route before leaving your current location. When the weather is freezing, usually at night, ice can build up. Deciding on a plan for your route before you get in your vehicle will allow you to pre-access the roads and find our which ones are clear and which ones could have ice. This will prevent you from slipping on the icy roads and causing damage to your vehicle or self. 

Turn on Fog Lights

When fog inevitably settles in be sure to turn on your vehicle’s fog, or low, lights. This might seem like common sense, however, if you do not turn them on other drivers will not be able to see you or you may not be able to see the other drivers. This could cause an unfortunate and catastrophic collision. 

Check Tire Threads

Even when it is warm outside you should be checking your tire threads. However, it is extremely important in the winter months. You need to be sure you check them BEFORE winter weather hits. In the event of icy roads, bad treads on tires will lesson the traction your vehicle has on the road and will increase your chances of slipping and crashing into barriers. 

Shovel that Snow

If you have any snow on your vehicle when you go to leave your location it is best to push off any excess. Snow will gradually gather and accumulate. Large pieces of ice can be sharp and could severely damage your vehicle. Pushing off any excess snow or ice (if you can) will help lower the chance of damage. 

Unfortunately, even with the most weather aware and careful drivers, accidents still happen. At Dynamic Dent we will fix you up in a breeze! We offer premiere service made simple and convenient with a 100% satisfaction guarantee and lifetime warranty on all repairs. Repairs are guaranteed to be fully covered by your insurance, no out of pocket cost on approved claims with discounts, your insurance rates will not increase for a hail damage claim, and hail repairs are not reported to CarFax. So, if you find yourself with a dented vehicle, do not panic. Dynamic Dent is here for you! Contact us immediately to start the claims process with your insurance. 

Spring Showers Bring Road Hazards

The weather is starting to warm up in North Texas. That means winter is on the outs, and spring is almost here! Of course, spring brings its own set of hazards for vehicles on the road. As we finish out the winter season and head into spring (hail season) it is important for us to be aware of the hazards we can, and will, be facing. 

Winter Roads

Winter weather can wreak havoc on roadways, especially the ice and snow storm we had recently. Keep an eye out for any new potholes or unevenness that could have been created since the fall season. Potholes can lead to a slew of damages to your vehicle, including poor alignment, suspension damage, bent rims, and more. 

Spring Showers

If you have lived in North Texas for long you know are prone to spring showers. Rain makes roadways slippery and reduces your vehicle’s tire traction and handling. Make sure to drive slowly and keep up with your tire maintenance; this can make a big difference while driving on slick roads. 

People

The weather is warming up, people are starting to venture outside. More people are walking, exercising, and biking, so there is an added danger of pedestrians cutting in front of you or getting in your way. Be extra vigilant near parks or where they may be children. 

Animals 

As people are starting to get out more, so are animals and other wildlife. As you are driving, be aware, many animals are starting to scavenge for food and look for mates. They may end up in the middle of the road, so stay vigilant to avoid hitting any of these critters. 

Hail 

Hail is another, and probably the most damaging, component to our North Texas spring storms. Hail can shatter windshields and leave dents all over the body of your vehicle making it hazardous for you and your passengers. The best thing you can do in a hail storm is to be in a building, not your vehicle. To protect your vehicle from hail you should park it in a garage, covered public parking, beside a large building (on the opposite side from the storm’s direction), or cover your vehicle in old blankets. 

If you do find yourself in a storm or accident that has left your vehicle dented, call us at Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, located in Lewisville, Texas.

Why is My Vehicle Dented?

Even though many of us are spending more time than ever at home, our vehicles are almost always at risk of being dented, especially when we are out and about. However, if you know what to be aware of you may be able to avoid a few unwanted collisions. Most commonly, your vehicle is going to be dented by: 

Recreational Equipment

Unfortunately, recreational equipment can hit your vehicle even while it is parked in your driveway. Many families and kids are spending more time outside during this pandemic season. You may even find yourself and your family outside enjoying some recreational activities. As you, your kids, or a neighbor, throws or kicks a ball there is always a chance it misses its target and hits a vehicle instead. All it takes is one bad throw or kick, now your vehicle has a dent. 

Automatic Car Washes

While automatic car washes are a nice way to get a break from your house, and convenient, sometimes they can leave unwanted dents on your vehicle. While your vehicle is on the conveyor belt it can get bumped, leaving an unwanted dent. 

Shopping Carts

Often when we go to the store we look for a parking spot that is far away from any roaming shopping carts. However, someone could leave a shopping cart unattended near your vehicle while you are unaware in the store. Slowly, the wind blows the shopping cart and it eventually comes into contact with your vehicle resulting in a dent or scratch. Ideally, shoppers would take their carts back to their proper location, but that does not always happen. 

Car Doors

You could be parked in your own driveway, on the street, or a parking lot, but your vehicle is always susceptible to other vehicles. The person parked next to you may not be paying attention, and when they swing their door open, to get in or out, it hits your vehicle and cases a dent. 

Distracted Driving

You may be talking on the phone or to someone in the back seat, and you just aren’t fully paying attention. It is easy to become distracted, and you, or another driver, may accidentally collide with another vehicle resulting in dents to your vehicle. 

Human Error

Often times we are our own worst enemies when it comes to denting our vehicles. Maybe we accidentally pulled up too far in a parking space, parked too close to a curb, or took a speed bump too quickly. Any of these could result in a dent for your vehicle. 

However, there is no need to worry. However the dent occurred, Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions, located in Lewisville, Texas, offers premiere service, made simple and convenient, with a 100% satisfaction guarantee, and a lifetime warranty on all repairs. With our Paintless Dent Repair system we can repair any dent on your vehicle. Contact us immediately to start the claims process with your insurance!

Got a Mystery Dent? We Can Help With That

When examining your vehicle, you may notice a dent. You may or may not know how it got there. To give you a clue as to what made it, you should examine the type of dent. You can often find one of the following types: 

Extreme Dents

To start with the most obvious, you look at extreme dents. You probably know what happened to cause the extreme dent. Extreme dents usually occur when your vehicle has collided with something else large at a faster speed. It could have run into another vehicle or even a mailbox. Sometimes extreme dents happen just by a person leaning up against the vehicle. However extreme the dent does look, with the proper tools and exercise, they can be fully repaired. 

Creased Dents

A creased dent occurs with something brushes up and drags against the side of your vehicle (i.e. another vehicle, tree branch, bicycle, trailer, etc.) Creased dents show themselves by forming a straight line at the bottom of the dent. 

Round Dents

Rounds dents are, simply, caused by round objects. They usually occur when your vehicle is stationary. A sport ball or a piece of hail could be the culprit. These dents are round and could be wide in appearance. 

Sharp Dents

Usually a small item hit the vehicle with a strong impact to create a sharp dent. When a shopping cart in a parking lot, another vehicle’s door, or a windblown object hits your vehicle, a sharp dent is usually formed. Due to the metal being stretched outwards, sharp dents usually leave a high spot with a deep “valley.” 

If you do happen to spot a dent on your vehicle, have no fear! Dynamic Dent Auto Hail Solutions in Lewisville, Texas is here for you. We are your go to repair shop for any and every kind of dent. Our Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) service is always available to repair your vehicle. Give us a call today to get started!
