There are many types of fender benders that one can get into that don’t necessarily fall under the umbrella as totaled. You can get nicked by another car in tight parking structures, you yourself could hit or tap someones bumper ever so slightly leaving a small dent in yours and the others car. Additionally, you may accidentally open your door onto a cement post. Stuff happens all of the time. The problem is that most families or even singles cannot afford to get their vehicle fixed. The cost for many is prohibitive. This cost that I speak of is usually the deductible that is generally very high. These are tough times and while it would be great to have some rainy day money set aside, many cannot afford that either. In fact, most Americans live paycheck to paycheck.

There is much in the news these days regarding economic downturns and problems. This is not an imagined crisis. That is to say, there are serious issues facing working people and it is the result of various “pinches” hitting the budgets of most families. For example, gas prices and food prices have started skyrocketing and this leaves many people with limited dollars in their savings. When people are in such situations, the last thing they need is to see their budgets busted by car accident related bills.

Paintless Dent Repair is a logical, affordable solution and an excellent alternative to traditional bodywork. The bodywork that needs to be done on a car, even if minor, can cost a significant amount of money. There are parts and labor involved and that will always run costs up. Even if you have solid insurance, a $500 deductible means you will be forced to shell out $500. When a household budget is tight and credit is hard to come by, a $500 deductible can really be difficult to part with.
