What Are Frame Repair Services?
Frame repair services restore your vehicle’s structural foundation after collision damage. The frame is engineered to protect occupants by absorbing crash energy—when compromised, your vehicle’s safety systems may not perform as designed in a subsequent collision.
At Race Track Auto Center located at 9840 Westpark Dr, Houston, TX 77063, our I-CAR certified frame specialists use computerized 3D measuring systems to identify all frame damage, including damage not visible to the eye. We then use precision hydraulic straightening equipment to restore your vehicle to exact factory specifications.
Modern vehicles use sophisticated unibody or body-on-frame construction designed with specific crumple zones and reinforcements. Professional frame repair services require specialized training, equipment, and adherence to manufacturer repair procedures to ensure these safety features work properly after repair.

Every frame repair follows our comprehensive process, ensuring safety and precision at every stage.
3D Measurement

Hydraulic equipment applies controlled force while computerized measuring monitors progress in real-time until factory specs are achieved.
Structural Welding
When required, damaged sections are welded, reinforced, or replaced following manufacturer procedures and I-CAR standards.
Final Verification
Post-repair 3D measurement confirms factory specifications. Alignment is set and road test verifies proper handling and safety.

What Our Customers Say
“After being rear-ended on I-10, my insurance wanted to total my car. Race Track showed the frame could be properly repaired and provided documentation proving it was back to factory specs. Saved my car and it drives perfectly.”
“Another shop ‘fixed’ my frame but the car still pulled right. Race Track’s computerized measuring showed it was still 12mm off. They straightened it properly and now it tracks perfectly straight. Should have come here first.”
“They handled everything with my insurance—I just dropped off the car. The before/after measurement printouts showed exactly what was wrong and proved the repair was done right. Very professional frame repair service.”
