Static + dynamic ADAS recalibration for Seattle and Tacoma Body Shops
Full static plus dynamic recalibration combines target-board work in your bay with a structured road drive, in the order the OEM specifies, plus a steering angle reset. It is required after multi-sensor collision repair, suspension overhauls or combined glass and bumper jobs. Focal ADAS completes it on-site in 30 to 90 minutes with full pre-scan, post-scan and per-system completion records.

When this calibration is required
Triggers below come from the manufacturer's published procedure for the build. Any one of them is enough to put the line on the file.
- Multi-sensor collision repair (camera + radar + ultrasonic)
- Suspension overhaul or four-wheel alignment changing ride height
- Steering rack, column or angle sensor replacement
- Combined windshield + bumper jobs on ADAS-equipped builds
- Any vehicle the OEM procedure flags as requiring both static and dynamic in sequence
How Focal ADAS performs it
- 1Pre-scan and OEM procedure pull
Full pre-scan, then the build-specific static + dynamic sequence is pulled and printed for the job folder.
- 2Steering angle reset
Performed first so every downstream system calibrates against a correct straight-ahead reference.
- 3Static calibration on targets
Forward camera, radar and any surround cameras calibrated against OEM targets in your bay.
- 4Dynamic road drive
Structured drive at the OEM's specified speeds and conditions to complete the dynamic portion.
- 5Post-scan and per-system verification
Each ADAS system verified individually, post-scan captured, and the full documentation packet handed off.
What the shop gets
- Pre-repair scan report (all modules)
- Post-repair scan report (all modules)
- OEM calibration procedure reference (build-specific)
- Calibration completion record from the scan tool
- Setup photos of targets / drive evidence
- Itemized invoice — pass-through ready
Single-system calibrations start at $349, multi-system jobs quoted by VIN.
Frequently asked questions
Why not just do dynamic and skip the targets?+
Most modern OEMs require both, in a specific order, when multiple systems are disturbed. Skipping the static portion leaves the static-only sensors uncalibrated and creates a documentation gap on the claim.
Where does the road drive happen?+
On nearby Puget Sound roads that meet the OEM speed and condition requirements. Route, duration and weather are logged with the job.
Is the steering angle reset always included?+
Yes, on this service. Any alignment or steering work invalidates the existing angle reference, and downstream calibrations need it correct before they run.
