Choosing the Right Auto Body Shop – OEM Certified Technician

Ten things you should know before having your vehicle repaired at an auto body shop:

You have the right to take your vehicle to the repair shop of your choice. Your insurance company cannot require you to have your vehicle repaired at any particular shop.
Never drive a vehicle that could be unsafe due to damages.
Differences in accident repair estimates are common. A lower estimate may not include all necessary work. If you’re unsure why one body work estimate is different from another you’ve received, please ask us.
Some insurance companies may want you to visit a claims center before having your vehicle repaired. You may also leave your vehicle at our shop and ask the insurance company to inspect the vehicle here.
Choose an auto body shop that has OEM certified technicians.
Your vehicle is likely the second-largest investment you will make. Preserve its value and your safety by having it repaired professionally.
You are not required by law in Missouri to obtain more than one estimate or appraisal.
Select a repair shop that is certified to fix today’s complex vehicles.
Ask if the auto body shop offers a written lifetime warranty.
Choose an accident repair facility that will assist you in handling your insurance claim.
