Rancho Cordova, CA — Most newer vehicles are equipped with Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS)—a network of sensors, radars, and cameras that power safety features like lane-keeping, adaptive cruise control, emergency braking, and blind spot monitoring. Even a low-impact collision can disrupt these systems without leaving visible damage, putting drivers and passengers at risk.
At B&J Body Shop in Rancho Cordova, each vehicle is thoroughly inspected for ADAS misalignments as part of the collision repair process. Most sensors and systems are recalibrated in-house to manufacturer specifications, while vehicles requiring specialized equipment are referred to trusted calibration partners to make sure that safety is restored before return.
Why ADAS Calibration Is No Longer Optional
ADAS components are sensitive and exact. A minor fender bender, windshield replacement, or even side mirror swap can disrupt radar placement or camera angle. Without recalibration, these systems can misfire, causing delayed alerts, failed braking, or improper steering corrections.
At B&J Body Shop, every auto collision repair includes a detailed ADAS check. When sensor misalignment is detected, recalibration is performed in-house when possible or referred out when specialized tools are needed, always following OEM guidelines.
A Complete Repair Approach Built on Technology and Craftsmanship
B&J Body Shop does not separate bodywork from digital accuracy. ADAS calibration is included in every qualifying repair, with most calibrations handled on-site and a few requiring referral to partners with specialized equipment, making sure that systems are safely restored alongside structural repairs.
The Step-by-Step Calibration Process
- Initial Diagnostics: A digital scan is conducted at the start of each collision body repair to identify any electronic faults or sensor misalignment.
- Sensor Realignment: Using manufacturer specifications, sensors and cameras are recalibrated using advanced digital targets and precision tools.
- System Testing and Verification: .All safety systems are tested through final diagnostics and—when applicable—real-world checks, either in-house or with trusted calibration partners, to verify proper function before delivery.
This process reflects a commitment to reliable collision repairs that go beyond traditional cosmetic fixes.
The Hidden Risks of Skipping Calibration After Collision Repair
Some autobody repair shops may overlook or outsource ADAS calibration. That oversight could leave safety systems inactive or inaccurate.
Safety Compromises and Legal Exposure
Uncalibrated ADAS features may:
- Fail to detect vehicles in blind spots
- Trigger false lane departure warnings
- Delay emergency braking
- Misjudge distance and speed in adaptive cruise control
These risks not only endanger drivers and passengers but can also lead to liability issues. Many insurance providers now require proof of post-collision ADAS calibration before honoring claims.
B&J Body Shop provides detailed documentation for all calibrations completed on-site or through external partners. This supports insurance claim processing and helps address all vehicle safety requirements.
