. Why does my Hyundai Oshan X7 get minor dents so easily in tight parking spaces?

Even with careful parking, my Oshan X7 keeps getting small dents on the doors—mostly from other cars o r bikes in crowded parking lots. Are the doors made of thinner metal compared to other SUVs, o r is this a common issue due to soft panel design?

The Oshan X7, like many modern crossovers, uses lighter sheet metal to reduce overall vehicle weight and improve fuel efficiency. However, this also means:

Door panels are more flexible and prone to dents, especially in crowded parking spaces o r close quarters.

Pakistani parking areas often have narrow lanes, unmarked spots, and high foot o r bike traffic, increasing the risk of dents.

What to do:

Install door edge guards and side molding strips to absorb minor impacts.

Park in less crowded o r corner spots when possible.
