Auto Repair Coverage
auto insurance question – body shop selection?
My car was hit while parked. I made a claim against the person who caused the accident. The insurance company has sent me an estimator who wrote a report. The ins company sent me a check for cost of repairs (according to the estimator).
The problem is that the estimate is on the low side. We both have Gieco insurance. I also have collision coverage.
My question is as follows:
Should I go to a body shop that is linked to the ins company, or should I pick an independent shop to do the repairs?.
Thanks
Note:
The car can not be driven, it has to be towed.
Take the estimate & check to the shop of your choice. Any supplement work must be re-inspected by Geico and paid for.
The only advantage to going with a Geico shop is the repairs are guaranteed by Geico.
