Scan and Calibration Questions After a Collision

Start with the equipment

Bring the VIN and describe the driver-assistance features on the vehicle. Mention any messages or unusual operation noticed after the damage.

Distinguish the procedures

A diagnostic scan and a calibration serve different purposes. Ask the repairer which manufacturer procedures apply to the vehicle and planned operations, including work around cameras, radar or their mounting areas.

Confirm who performs the work

Ask whether any checks or calibrations will be performed by another provider. Review scheduling, cost and the records you will receive when the repair is completed.
