2. When there is Frame Time on an estimate it always means that the vehicle is a borderline total loss.

Explanation

The given statement is false. Frame Time on an estimate does not always indicate that the vehicle is a borderline total loss. Frame Time refers to the amount of time it takes to repair or replace the frame of a vehicle. It is a factor considered when assessing the extent of damage and the cost of repairs. However, it does not necessarily determine whether the vehicle is a total loss or not. Other factors such as the overall condition of the vehicle, the cost of repairs compared to the vehicle's value, and local regulations also play a role in determining if a vehicle is a total loss.

3. Replacing a damaged OEM part with a new aftermarket part will void the manufacturers warranty.  

Explanation

Replacing a damaged OEM part with a new aftermarket part will not void the manufacturer's warranty. This is because the Magnuson-Moss Warranty Act prohibits manufacturers from voiding a warranty simply because an aftermarket part was used. However, if the aftermarket part is found to be the cause of the damage, the manufacturer may deny warranty coverage for that specific issue.

Submit
4. Select the most appropriate answer.  

Explanation

The image above is an example of a conventional frame vehicle because it shows a vehicle with a separate frame and body construction. In a conventional frame vehicle, the frame provides the structural support and the body is attached to it. This type of construction is commonly used in trucks and larger commercial vehicles to provide strength and durability.

Submit
5. Based on the photo, which of the following statements is correct?  

Explanation

The correct answer is "The quarter panel was replaced using an LKQ part." This can be determined based on the photo provided, which shows a replacement quarter panel on the vehicle. Additionally, the use of an LKQ part indicates that a recycled or used part was used for the replacement, rather than a brand new part.

Submit
6. Please review the photo and estimate below.   Which statement is correct?

Explanation

Based on the given options, the correct statement is "The quarter panel was not damaged." This means that there was no damage to the quarter panel of the vehicle.

Submit
7. A blend is required whenever the adjacent panel is replaced.

Explanation

A blend is not required whenever the adjacent panel is replaced. This statement implies that a blend is always necessary when replacing an adjacent panel, which is not true. The need for a blend depends on various factors such as the type of panel, the color and texture of the existing panels, and the desired outcome. In some cases, a blend may be necessary to ensure a seamless transition between panels, but it is not always required.

Submit
8. If the bumper is ripped, or the tabs are broken off, it must be replaced or reconditioned.  

Explanation

If the bumper is ripped or the tabs are broken off, it does not necessarily mean that it must be replaced or reconditioned. Depending on the severity of the damage, it may be possible to repair the bumper or replace the tabs without needing to replace the entire bumper. Therefore, the statement is false.
