damage

Damage is any change in a thing, often a physical object, that degrades it away from its initial state. It can broadly be defined as "changes introduced into a system that adversely affect its current or future performance". Damage "does not necessarily imply total loss of system functionality, but rather that the system is no longer operating in its optimal manner". Damage to physical objects is "the progressive physical process by which they break",: 1.  and includes mechanical stress that weakens a structure, even if this is not visible.: ix.

    Body repairs

    Hey all I’ve recently acquired my MG4 EV long range as a company car - absolutely love it. In the last couple months, I’ve been driving it to the train station and parking in the long stay car park. I returned last night and one of the side body mouldings had come off, and the lower mouldings...

    Expensive knock (radar unit damaged)

    So today I had a very minor collision with a deer that shot across the road in front of me. It was so slight that the deer ran off seemingly unharmed, but the bumper obviously flexed and the paint has shed. Now all the ADAS systems are offline and bonging warnings at the start of every journey...

    Storm damage

    Got up Friday morning to suspect that a small piece of masonry had been detached from the garage roof and fallen onto my MG4 Trophy - breaking the plastic cover on the nearside rear lights. I was less bothered about the small dent which may have been the result of out bin flying into it, since...

    Seriously tough vehicle!

    A short update on my own positive MG4 experience, just to offset some of the more irritating experiences reported in the forum... A few months back I managed to reverse our MG4 into a culvert (yes, really, really stupid!). The bottom of the car was wedged on a large rock, the offside rear...

    Stupid careless Bam Bam

    Advice needed! I didn't clock a car parked in an unusual place in a car park without marked spaces and backed into it. Slow speed. Went inside and found the owner of the Audi who wasn't bothered. The damage seemed minor and all on the MG, which I drove away without any issues. Got it home...

    Pothole gives MG4 concussion. Last Wednesday week I had reason to travel to Bunnings in Hastings, then on to Tyabb. Not well traveled destinations so I used the Great Google to navigate, but I missed a turn and it dutifully re-routed me. But the route followed some unsealed farm backroads and I...

    My turn for the broken charge flap

    Well it finally happened to me, almost 2 years in. After I plugged in recently, my leg scrubbed the corner of the flap, and...crunch. There wasn't much force involved. Snapped like a carrot. Looking at the design on the structure, someone at SAIC thought that the best place to save plastic...
