Infiniti Structural Repair: Pillars, Roof Rails and Moonroofs

Side and rollover damage on Infiniti SUVs often involves pillars, roof rails and large moonroofs. Learn how these structural repairs are handled.

Upper Structure Repairs

Not all structural damage is at the front or rear. Side impacts and rollovers can damage pillars, roof rails and the roof itself. On Infiniti SUVs like the QX60 and QX80, large panoramic moonroofs add complexity.

Pillars

A-, B- and C-pillars protect occupants and support the roof. They are made from high-strength steels in multiple layers. Infiniti's procedures specify whether a damaged pillar can be sectioned and how. Airbag curtains and wiring inside the pillars are protected or replaced as needed.

Roof Rails and Roof Panels

Roof panels are typically bonded and welded to the side rails. Replacing a roof requires careful removal of the headliner, airbags and moonroof assembly, followed by precise installation and sealing.

Moonroof Assemblies

Panoramic moonroofs have large glass panels, tracks, drains and motors. After structural repairs nearby, we check alignment, operation and water drainage to prevent leaks.

Front and Rear Structures

Front rails, aprons and rear floors are also structural. They follow similar principles: measure, repair or replace per procedure, restore corrosion protection.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can a damaged roof be repaired?

Minor dents can be; significant damage usually requires roof panel replacement.

Will my moonroof leak after repairs?

Not if seals and drains are properly restored. We water-test when appropriate.

Are curtain airbags replaced after a side impact?

If they deployed, yes, along with related sensors.
