When PDR is done wrong, many things can happen to your vehicle. For one, they can cause paint damage by cracking the paint, marring the paint, or leaving pockmarks all in the paint, all of which would need to be repainted in order to correct it which completely eliminates the point of paintless dent repair as a solution to repairing a dent.

Another thing that can happen when PDR is done wrong is they can create more work for a technician to properly perform the dent repair. Bad pdr can lock the dent into place, which can significantly add to the time it takes for a proper dent repair or to the effort needed to actually repair the dent which will increase the cost, and labor of the pdr.

Bad paintless dent repair can also leave you with a negative feeling towards paintless dent repair as a viable option for dent removal, leaving you skeptical of the ability for pdr to be the proper repair for you. There are many paintless dent repair companies out there and many paintless dent repair technicians. Lots of these pdr companies and pdr techs have not had the proper pdr training required to perform dent removal the right way every time. Unfortunately, many of these people are just looking to make money. They don't necessarily care about your vehicle or you as a customer. They just want to push out the dent as quickly as possible and get paid all the while not actually repairing your vehicle a hundred percent and leaving it looking worse than it did when you brought it in.

Another thing that can happen with a bad PDR experience is that your vehicle ends up with more damage. Poorly trained pdr techs can drill holes in the panels in order to access the dent which, in a lot of today's newer vehicles, can affect the airbag sensors. These sensors operate off of pressure sensors and drilling holes in the panels can affect those working properly if you were to be in an accident. They can also damage clips or other parts of your vehicle in the pdr process with no guarantee that they will fix it right, possible just gluing things back together, instead of replacing them like they should.
