After you’ve been involved in an accident, it’s very important that your car is thoroughly restored to its pre-accident condition. In about 50% of accidents, frame damage occurs, which can make your vehicle unsafe to drive. When you need collision repair, be sure the work is done at a shop that has earned a strong reputation for top-quality work. At First Class Auto Body & BumperDoc Inc., our technicians are experts at fixing all kinds of collision damage. And if you have any questions about the collision repair process, we’d be more than happy to answer them. Here’s a look at some of the commonly asked questions about collision repair.

What happens with my car following an accident?

Depending on the extent of the damage, this could go in a couple of different directions. If your vehicle is inoperable, then it’ll be towed away so the damage can be professionally assessed. For this evaluation to be completed, your vehicle will go either to a facility operated by your insurance company or to a collision center. However, if there’s only light damage and your car can be safely driven, then you can keep using it until the time comes for your appointment at the shop.

What is the cost of collision repair?

The cost of collision repair will depend on how serious the damage is. It’s best to choose a shop that has a strong record of providing accurate estimates at no cost. This way, you can make a more informed choice about where to get your car repaired. Also, the type of insurance you have will determine how much you have to spend out of pocket.

Who decides where the repairs are done? Me or my insurance agency?

There’s a good chance that your insurance company will highly encourage you to get the repairs done at a specific shop. But you’ll want to keep in mind that you ultimately get to decide what shop will do the work.
