"Drivers assume that because the warning lights are off, everything is fine, but safety systems can be misaligned without any obvious sign. After certain repairs, recalibration isn't optional it's essential." Triggs Garage spokesperson Triggs Garage in Armadale, Perth, warns that windscreen replacements, bumper resprays, panel repairs and suspension work can misalign vehicle safety cameras and sensors without dashboard warnings.

This can affect emergency braking, lane assistance and other ADAS features.

The workshop urges drivers to check whether recalibration is required after repairs and offers calibration services covering 97% of vehicles.
