Question and Answer
Q. My insurance company is trying to get me to use their "recommended" repair shop. Do I have to use them?
A. No. It is illegal for an insurance company to "steer" you to their preferred shop. Usually, they have a very low pricing agreement with their preferred vendor.
Just remember, you get what you pay for! They have to reimburse you for repair (if you have comprehensive coverage) no matter which shop you choose, so don't let the insurance company bully you into using a low price shop. |
