About this service.

Why Collision Shops Close Repairs With Core Auto Logic

Forward collision warning and AEB are the systems a customer bets their hood on. After frontal repair, a calibrated and documented chain is the difference between a closed RO and an open liability.

Failure Indicators

Post-repair symptoms that say the collision-warning chain is out of calibration.

Ghost Braking
AEB grabs for overpasses, parked cars, or shadows - a radar or camera aimed off-axis.
Late or Missing Warnings
Forward collision alerts arrive late or not at all in situations that used to trigger them.
AEB Lamp After Repair
The collision-mitigation warning light stays on once the bodywork is finished.
Sensors Disagree
Fusion faults where camera and radar report conflicting targets - classic post-collision misalignment.

Common reasons customers book this service

Tap a card to see what triggers this service and which systems are affected.

Impact energy travels through the front structure into camera and radar mounts. After any frontal hit, the collision-warning chain must be recalibrated and verified before the vehicle is returned - OEM position statements are unambiguous on this.
Forward collision systems fuse camera and radar data. Replacing either sensor means recalibrating it to the vehicle - and on fusion platforms, verifying both sensors agree on what they see.
Windshield R&R plus front bumper work touches both halves of the collision-warning chain at once. Both calibrations belong in the same visit, sequenced per the factory procedure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Every sensor feeding forward collision warning and automatic emergency braking on the platform - typically the windshield camera, the front radar, or both. On fusion systems we calibrate each sensor and verify the pair agrees, in the order the OEM specifies.
After frontal collision repair, yes. Sensor mounts can shift inside tolerance-looking bodywork without setting a code, and OEM position statements require calibration after collision regardless of DTC status. The post-repair scan plus calibration is what makes the repair defensible.
Completed factory calibration with aim values inside tolerance, a clean post-scan, and the OEM-specified dynamic verification where applicable. That documented chain is the accepted standard of proof - no shop should be test-crashing vehicles to find out.
Yes - that is the normal case. Combined camera-plus-radar collision calibrations run 2-4 hours on-site including the verification drive, sequenced per the factory procedure.
That is a calibration-quality symptom and it is covered: every job carries our one-year unlimited-miles guarantee. We return, re-verify the aim values against the documented baseline, and resolve it at no charge if calibration is the cause.
