No matter how small a collision may seem, it can significantly affect the accuracy and reliability of your vehicle’s Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS). These sensors are designed to operate with extreme precision, and even a slight shift in angle or position can disrupt how the system interprets its surroundings.
After an accident—whether a minor bumper tap, carpark scrape, or major impact—your vehicle’s structural alignment, mounting points, and sensor brackets may be affected. This means the system cannot correctly detect lanes, objects, pedestrians, or vehicles ahead. To restore full safety functionality, professional post-collision calibration is essential.
The ONSITE ADAS team specialises in recalibrating safety systems after repairs, panel replacements, windscreen replacements, airbag deployment, or any structural work that could impact ADAS sensor accuracy.
Modern driver-assist systems rely on precise data to make split-second decisions. When a collision alters the angle or alignment of a sensor—even by a few millimetres—the system may:
Without calibration, these systems can react unpredictably, creating dangerous situations on the road. Post-collision calibration ensures your vehicle returns to its original manufacturer specifications, with every safety feature functioning exactly as intended.
The ONSITE ADAS team assesses and recalibrates all critical components affected by front, side, or rear impacts. Our calibration service includes:
Mounted behind the windscreen, these cameras manage lane-keeping, lane departure alerts, traffic sign recognition, and collision warnings. A collision—even a light one—can knock these cameras out of alignment.
Located behind the bumper or grille, radar units control adaptive cruise control, automatic braking, and distance monitoring. They are extremely sensitive to alignment changes.
Often affected during bumper repairs, these sensors manage parking assistance, obstacle detection, and low-speed safety alerts.
Rear bumper impacts commonly disrupt blind-spot sensors, causing delayed or incorrect warnings.
Any change in steering geometry, wheel alignment, or camera positioning can impact lane-centering and lane departure systems.
Our mobile technicians ensure every component is recalibrated to perfection using advanced diagnostic tools and OEM-approved calibration equipment.
Yes. Even low-speed impacts can shift sensors by a few millimetres—enough to severely affect how the system reads the road. Small collisions often cause hidden misalignment, which calibration can correct.
Many insurers now require proof of ADAS recalibration before finalising a collision repair claim. Failure to recalibrate may result in rejected claims or disputes about repair quality.
Absolutely. ONSITE ADAS specialises in mobile calibration. We bring all the required equipment to your workshop, panel shop, windscreen replacement site, or home.
Yes. Replacing or removing a bumper can disturb radar sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and blind-spot monitors. Calibration is required after any such repair.
Dashboard lights such as ACC unavailable, camera blocked, AEB error, or lane assist fault indicate misalignment. Calibration can often resolve these warnings.
Yes. Anything that changes the height or angle of the vehicle can affect ADAS sensors and may require recalibration.
Most calibrations take 45–90 minutes, depending on the number of sensors affected and the vehicle model.
Yes. Misaligned sensors may trigger unnecessary braking, incorrect warnings, or inconsistent lane alerts. Proper calibration restores accuracy.
If the sensors and modules are undamaged, calibration will fully restore function. If components are faulty, our diagnostics will identify necessary repairs.
Yes. We provide documentation showing that ADAS calibration was completed according to manufacturer procedures—important for insurance, compliance, and customer records.
