Not all auto body repairs are created equal. Whether it was after a hailstorm or a fender bender, you expect your car to be returned looking—and performing—like new. But if something feels off, you might be dealing with a low-quality repair job. Here are six red flags to watch for and how Comeback Auto Assist ensures a job done right.

1. Uneven Paint or Mismatched Color

The paint should match the rest of your vehicle seamlessly. If you notice:

  • Different shades
  • A dull or overly shiny finish
  • Overspray on glass, trim, or tires
    …it’s a sign of rushed or unskilled paintwork.

2. Poor Panel Alignment

All panels—doors, fenders, bumpers—should line up smoothly with consistent gaps. Misalignment may indicate frame issues or poor installation that could affect safety and performance.

3. Unusual Noises After Driving Away

Creaking, rattling, or new vibrations are warning signs. They often point to loose parts, incorrect reassembly, or overlooked internal damage after a collision.

4. Warning Lights Still On

If your airbag, check engine, or sensor-related lights are still active after repairs, something was missed or improperly reconnected—especially critical in post-collision situations.

5. Poor Fit and Finish on Interior Trim

Check around the dashboard, door panels, and trunk. If clips are loose, plastic is rattling, or seams are misaligned, shortcuts may have been taken during reassembly.

6. No Repair Documentation or Warranty

A reputable shop will walk you through what was done and offer a written warranty. If you didn’t receive a repair summary or your questions were brushed off—that’s a red flag.
