Accident Assistance FAQ

Accident Assistance Frequently Asked Questions

Learn more about choosing a repair facility, insurance claims, towing, repair timelines, and additional services.

01 Do I have the right to choose where my vehicle is repaired?

Yes. You can select a collision repair facility you trust rather than automatically using a shop recommended by your insurer.

02 Do I need more than one estimate?

You generally do not need to collect several repair estimates. Your insurance company may still request an inspection or review the proposed repairs.

03 What if my vehicle is too damaged to drive?

Arrange towing to your selected collision repair facility and notify your insurance company where the vehicle has been taken.

04 Who is responsible for paying the repair bill?

The vehicle owner remains responsible for the repair bill. Insurance may cover eligible expenses under the policy, and payment arrangements can be discussed with the shop.

05 Will Bisbee Precision Collision help with insurance claims?

Yes. Our team works with major insurance providers and helps customers navigate estimates, claim documentation, and repair coordination.

06 How long will the repairs take?

Repair time depends on the damage, parts, and work required. Your advisor can provide an initial estimate and refine the timeline after detailed inspection and repair planning.

07 Is there a warranty on repairs?

The shop offers a workmanship guarantee for the period you own the vehicle. Parts and materials may also be covered by their manufacturers' warranties.

08 Can I have additional work done at the same time?

Yes. Let your repair advisor know about other services you would like completed. The team can discuss scheduling additional work while your vehicle is at the facility.
