DESCRIPTION
Exterior sheet metal components make up the
exterior of the vehicle. Some exterior metal systems
are welded assemblies, such as doors and hoods.
Some exterior trim items are made of composite.
OPERATION
The exterior is finished in various metal stampings
and composite moldings. These assemblies give the
vehicle a finished appearance and protect the occu-
pants from the elements. Some components are part
of the energy absorbing system used to protect the
occupants in collisions. The exterior sheet metal is
repairable and adjustable for fit and finish. Welded
and bonded component systems are adjustable as a
system. Trim components made of composite are
stamped with the type of material used. Daimler-
Chrysler uses various fasteners to retain trim items.
At times, it is not possible to remove trim items
without damaging the fastener. If it is not possible to
remove an item without damaging a component, cut
or break the fasteners and use new ones when
installing the component.
