What to Expect After an Accident

Car accidents are stressful enough without the added worry of repair costs. At Autoworks of Atlanta, we understand the financial burden an accident can bring. We’re here to help you understand what goes into a repair estimate and how we can work with you and your insurance to get your car back on the road.

The Factors Behind the Bill

Several factors influence the final cost of collision repair:

• Extent of the damage: A minor fender bender will cost less than major structural damage. Be prepared for an initial assessment to uncover hidden issues.
• Your car’s make and model: Luxury vehicles often have more expensive parts, affecting the overall price.
• Parts used: Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts are typically pricier than aftermarket options, but they guarantee quality and a perfect fit. We’ll discuss the options with you.
• Labor rates: The complexity of the repair and the technician’s skill level will impact labor costs.
• Hidden damage: Sometimes, damage isn’t visible at first glance. Our thorough inspection will uncover any underlying issues to ensure your safety.

Navigating Insurance Claims

If you’re filing an insurance claim, we’re your advocates. We’ll work directly with your insurance company to ensure your claim is processed smoothly and you receive fair compensation for the damage. Remember, you have the right to choose your repair shop, so don’t feel pressured to use the insurance company’s preferred option.
