What is a rear coaming?
The MAXUS rear coiling is the baffle section of the vehicle trunk, located between the outside of the motor vehicle and the inside of the trunk. The rear coaming is a protective barrier for motor vehicles and protects the contents of the trunk. It is located in the tailgate of the trunk, which is the circle under the trunk, and constructs the lower outer part of the trunk. In most cases, the rear coaming is not integrated with the frame, but is connected to the frame by welding. Therefore, if the rear coaming is damaged, sheet metal repair is usually recommended instead of cutting treatment. As one of the covering parts of the body, the rear coaming plate is composed of several components, not a single whole. Therefore, when it needs to be replaced, it will not result in a significant depreciation of the vehicle. Its position and function make the rear coaming an indispensable part of the automobile structure, which is of great significance for protecting the structure and cargo safety of the rear of the vehicle .
The impact of rear coaming cutting on the car is mainly reflected in the structural strength, safety performance, service life and market value of the vehicle.
Effects of structural strength and safety features : The rear coaming, the tailgate of the trunk, is usually welded together with the body to form an integral structure. Cutting and welding the rear coaming can seriously weaken the overall strength of the car body, especially in a rear-end crash, where the rear coaming is vulnerable. If not cut properly or repaired thoroughly, it may have a negative impact on the structure and safety performance of the vehicle.
impact on Service life : The service life and performance of the cut and welded rear panel may not be restored to its original state even after repair. This is because repaired parts may not meet the standard strength and durability of the original factory, and long-term use may cause more problems.
market value impact : Vehicles whose rear coaming is cut and repaired have a significant depreciation in the used car market. Because the vehicle that has been cut is regarded as a "big accident car", its service life, safety performance, handling performance and so on are comparable with the original car, there will be a great depreciation.
Repair suggestion : If the rear coaming is damaged, try to repair it to avoid unnecessary cutting. If cutting cannot be avoided, it is necessary to find a professional maintenance organization to repair and ensure the welding process and quality to reduce the impact on the vehicle structure and safety performance.
In summary, the impact of rear coaming cutting on the car is mainly reflected in the structural strength, safety performance, service life and market value. Therefore, when dealing with post-coaming damage, priority should be given to repair rather than cutting, and to ensure the professionalism and quality of the repair work to reduce these negative effects.
The steps to remove the rear coaming are as follows:
Preparations : Ensure that the vehicle is in a safe position and use jacks and supports to secure the vehicle to prevent movement during operation. In addition, prepare necessary tools, such as screwdrivers, wrenches, and plastic removal tools.
Removing interior trim : Before removing the rear coaming, it may be necessary to remove relevant interior trim from the vehicle, such as the rear seat and rear window trim panels, to better access the fixed points of the rear coaming.
Unfasten the retainer screws : Using the appropriate tool, unfasten the retainer screws one by one from the rear coaming as directed in the vehicle service manual. These screws may be located on the edge of the roof, under the rear window, or near the rear bumper.
Carefully remove : After all setting screws have been loosened, use a plastic removal tool to carefully pry the rear coaming away from the body. Be careful not to use too much force to avoid damaging the body or rear coaming.
During the entire disassembly process, it is important to follow the vehicle manufacturer's guidance and safety specifications to ensure the correct and safe operation. Also, if the rear coaming needs to be replaced, align the new rear coaming with the mounting position of the body, reinstall the retaining screws by following the reverse steps, and ensure that all connections are secure .
