Understanding Your Rights: Insurance-Related Auto Body and Refinishing Repairs
When it comes to auto body and refinishing repairs after an accident, dealing with insurance companies can feel overwhelming. At The Collision Man, we’re here to simplify the process and empower you with knowledge about your rights. One of the most important things to understand is this: you, as the vehicle owner, have the right to choose your repair facility.
Your Right to Choose Matters
Many insurance companies maintain a list of “preferred” or “direct repair” facilities. While these shops may be convenient, they’re not your only option. You are under no obligation to use a facility recommended by your insurance provider. By law, you have the freedom to select the repair shop you trust to handle your vehicle’s repairs.
At The Collision Man, we believe in earning your trust through transparency, expertise, and a commitment to quality workmanship. When you choose us, you’re choosing a team that works for you—not the insurance company.
Why Choosing the Right Repair Facility Is Important
Your vehicle is an investment, and proper repairs are critical for its longevity, performance, and safety. Here’s why picking the right facility matters:
- Quality Repairs: Insurance-driven shops might prioritize cost savings over quality. At The Collision Man, we prioritize your safety and satisfaction, ensuring your vehicle meets manufacturer standards.
- State-of-the-Art Equipment: We utilize cutting-edge technology, including our state-of-the-art alignment machine, to restore your vehicle to pre-accident condition.
