Ask I-CAR
2014 Dodge Avenger
Request
Is there a sectioning procedure available for the trunk floor?
Response
Dodge does not have a sectioning procedure for the trunk floor.
Per I-CAR curriculum developed in cooperation with the vehicle maker: “Sectioning may only be done to the extent shown in the repair manual. If the damage extends beyond the sectioning location, entire part replacement is the only acceptable repair.”
A tool that may be used to find out if the vehicle maker has a partial replacement or sectioning procedure is the I-CAR developed OEM Partial Part Replacement Search.
