From the interior to the car body, everything should be in usable condition. Apart from other parts, the vehicle body is a must to check, as repairing a deteriorating car can cost you a fortune. That said, for self-inspection of the vehicle, it is not necessary to have profound mechanical knowledge. You can check whether your car&#8217;s body is intact or not, just by inspecting its physical condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Let&#8217;s go through the steps for a thorough car body intact inspection.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-when-to-do-car-body-inspection\">When to Do Car Body Inspection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Before initiating the car body inspection, here are some conditions that will aid you in the process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Always carry inspections during the daytime and in an open environment. Natural light enables buyers to observe the vehicle and identify dents, ripples and scratches.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Make sure that the vehicle is parked in an open space and you can get a 360\u00b0 view of the vehicle.<\/li><li>To check the underbody, park the vehicle on an incline or use a jack to raise the vehicle from the ground.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Once you have catered to these conditions, let\u2019s move towards vehicle body inspection.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-how-to-do-car-body-intact-inspection\">How to Do Car Body Intact Inspection<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Following are the steps to inspect whether the used car body is intact or not.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-check-underbody-rust\">Check Underbody Rust<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Rusting is a common phenomenon that occurs when iron reacts with moisture. Due to the close proximity to the sea, the high humidity levels in the UAE can catalyse rusting in cars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That said, the first step in vehicle body inspection is to check <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/car-body-rust\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">underbody rusting<\/a>. Start the inspection from wheel wells and rocker panels as they are more prone to underbody rusting.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Rusting under the car indicating car decay\" class=\"wp-image-81015\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-421x263.jpg 421w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-558x349.jpg 558w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-363x227.jpg 363w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-250x156.jpg 250w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-774x484.jpg 774w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-672x420.jpg 672w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-437x273.jpg 437w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-301x188.jpg 301w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-240x150.jpg 240w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-771x482.jpg 771w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-669x418.jpg 669w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102503\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-1-16-2-23-435x272.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Rusting under the car indicated the decaying car body frame.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-search-for-dents\">Search for Dents<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Dents, ripples and scratches indicate that the car body is not intact or the vehicle is accidental. Closely observe the front fascia and rear end of the car including the bumper, headlights, brake lights and hood. Moreover, inspect the car frame under the hood to ensure whether the body is intact or not. While inspecting, avoid brush marks and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/car-scratches-types\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">car scratches<\/a> on the bumpers, as they are not an indication of major accidents.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-inspect-exterior-paint\">Inspect Exterior Paint<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Multiple factors can lead to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/car-paint-damage\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">car paint damage<\/a>, including a decaying car body. Therefore, checking car paint is an efficient way of identifying an intact car body. Closely observe different panels of the car and look for colour differences. Usually, repainted panels do not match the original colour of the car, and the difference is visible in natural light.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apart from that, use your palms to check the surface&#8217;s smoothness. Automobile companies use multiple layers of coating which makes the exterior surface smooth and shiny &#8211; this is usually missing in repainted cars.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"640\" src=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-1024x640.jpg\" alt=\"Repainting car to hide damages\" class=\"wp-image-81016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-640x400.jpg 640w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-421x263.jpg 421w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-558x349.jpg 558w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-363x227.jpg 363w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-250x156.jpg 250w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-368x230.jpg 368w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-774x484.jpg 774w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-672x420.jpg 672w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-437x273.jpg 437w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-301x188.jpg 301w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-240x150.jpg 240w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-771x482.jpg 771w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-669x418.jpg 669w, https:\/\/d2hucwwplm5rxi.cloudfront.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/02\/16102516\/How-to-Check-if-the-Car-Body-is-Intact-_-Body-2-16-2-23-435x272.jpg 435w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption>Repainted parts of a vehicle have a slightly different shade from the rest of the car.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-look-for-aftermarket-modification\">Look for Aftermarket Modification<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>People generally opt for aftermarket modifications to increase the vehicle\u2019s efficiency. However, in some cases, aftermarket modification is conducted to replace faulty parts. That said, during the car body intact inspection, make sure there are no major aftermarket modifications. If there are any, ask the vehicle owner to replace them with the original parts.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-perform-magnet-test\">Perform Magnet Test<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dubizzle.com\/blog\/cars\/choosing-best-car-repair-shop\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Auto repair shops<\/a> often use body fillers to hide dents and damages on the exterior body. Typically, the body filler is made from polyester resin and therefore, it does not attract magnets. For that reason, it is easier to identify car body fillers using a magnet.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To detect a car body filler, simply place a magnet on different car body panels. If the magnet is not attracted to a specific part, it indicates the use of body fillers showing that the car body is not intact.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-symptoms-of-decaying-car-body\">Symptoms of Decaying Car Body<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Car body decay is a major problem for vehicle owners and it is better to get it repaired at an early stage. That said, here we have mentioned some common symptoms indicating a decaying car body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Cracks on the car frame.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Paint flaking off from the body.<\/li><li>The appearance of bubbles on the exterior paint.&nbsp;<\/li><li>Hissing sound when braking.<\/li><li>Rusty water leaking from the car.&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>These were all the necessary steps to perform a car body intact inspection. A decaying or rusted car body is a serious problem, as it can reduce the overall efficiency of a vehicle. Therefore, it is necessary to closely inspect the car body.
