The initial estimate you have received from the insurance company only reflects their visual inspection. Insurance companies are aware that there will be additional parts and labor needed above and beyond their initial estimate. So there is no need to worry or feel that you are accepting the insurance company\u2019s initial estimate as the final estimate for repairs. Once the vehicle arrives at Network Auto Body, we will remove any damaged parts, do a thorough inspection, and if necessary contact the insurance company to inform them of any additional labor, materials, or parts that are needed to repair your vehicle properly and safely.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

Opt-OEM parts are not supplied by the vehicle manufacturer to the repair facility and may be blemished or run off parts. These parts do not come with a warranty from the vehicle manufacturer. The Bureau of Automotive Repair strictly limits the type of parts witch may be installed on a customers vehicle and the law clearly defines each category of parts. The law has no provisions for a category of part called \u201coptional OEM\u201d.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t

As an insured motorist you have the right to choose the repair facility of your choice. Your insurance company cannot refer or recommend a shop, commonly known as \u201csteering\u201d, unless you specifically ask for a body shop referral. That\u2019s the law.<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
