What Lincoln aluminum certification means
Aluminum is not repaired like steel. It conducts heat quickly, does not show stress the way steel does, and corrodes if steel dust gets on it. That is why carmakers limit aluminum structural repair to shops with separate aluminum tools, a separate work area and technicians trained on that brand.
Lincoln collision repair is covered by Ford’s Certified Collision Network. The aluminum-capable tier requires a separate aluminum repair area, wet-mix dust extraction, a Ford-approved self-piercing rivet gun, dedicated aluminum tools, aluminum dent extraction, a 220V aluminum MIG welder and certified aluminum technicians.

Lincoln aluminum repair FAQ
Which Lincoln models use aluminum?
The Navigator from 2018 on has an aluminum-alloy body. Other Lincoln models use aluminum hoods, closures and structural parts.
Does Lincoln have its own aluminum certification?
Lincoln collision repair is part of the Ford Certified Collision Network. Oxmoor Collision Center holds that certification with aluminum capability.
Will you repair my aluminum panel or replace it?
It depends on the part and the damage. We follow the carmaker’s repair procedures for your exact vehicle. Some aluminum panels can be repaired with aluminum dent tools. Others, including many structural parts, must be replaced with genuine parts. We explain which and why on your estimate.
Does aluminum repair cost more than steel repair?
