  • Don’t shop on price alone. A very low estimate could indicate that the shop’s estimator has improperly assessed the vehicle’s damage or that the shop specializes in “quickie” repair jobs of poor quality. If you get a quote that is significantly lower than others, ask the estimator to explain why the quote is so different before you choose them. You may get what you pay for.

• Check them out with the BBB. If you don’t have a specific company in mind, we can provide you a list of BBB-accredited body shops.

• Get everything in writing up front, including the work to be performed and the cost. Obtain an itemized list for all parts and services with prices. Understand if parts will be after-market or used rather than Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM). That may be OK, depending on the age and value of the vehicle.

• Ask about a warranty. Reputable repair shops will stand behind their work by offering a warranty. Usually this warranty is for a specific time — from 30 days to lifetime — and covers the labor, materials and installation. The actual parts will be covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.

• If you need a rental car, check your insurance policy to see if you have rental car coverage. It can be a good deal since the annual premium may be less than one day’s rental cost….
