Scan For Your Safety

Before vehicles were outfitted with computer systems and other advanced technology, fixing them was so easy, many people did it themselves. Today, with all of this new technology, maintenance is not complete without checking the functionality of the crash-avoidance technology and onboard computer diagnostics. The only way to know that all of your vehicle’s functions are working correctly after being repaired is by performing a post-repair diagnostic scan, which includes the inspection of all the technological functions within the vehicle to ensure that they are not malfunctioning. Our professional service technicians at Portsmouth Auto Body Center are excited to speak with you about performing a post-repair diagnostic scan on your vehicle. Read on to learn more information about this vital service.

Check The Important Functions

If you bought your vehicle recently, it likely includes features such as Collision Avoidance Braking, Adaptive Cruise Control, Blind Spot Detection, Front/Rear Radar, HUD, Self-Parking, Lane Change Assist, and another driver-assist features. The longer we have the vehicle, the more we get used to these functions, which can make us underappreciate their value. When your vehicle is involved in a collision, it can often store 'fault codes' that cause the warning lights to fail, potentially leading to dangerous mistakes that could be avoided. These systems often need to be recalibrated. If your vehicle does not undergo a post-repair diagnostic scan, many of your vehicle's internal systems may have issues that will affect your driving in the future.
