Auto Body Insurance Claims: Frequently Asked Questions

Do I have the right to choose my own auto body shop for repairs? Yes. Under California law, you have the absolute right to select the repair facility of your choice. While insurance companies may suggest “preferred” shops, they cannot require you to use them. At IQ Collision Center, we work with all major insurance providers to ensure your vehicle is restored to its pre-accident condition using high-quality parts and expert craftsmanship.

Will you work directly with my insurance company? Absolutely. When you Contact Auto Body Shop experts at our facility, we take over the communication with your insurance adjuster. We handle the digital imaging, detailed line-item estimating, and supplemental claims if additional hidden damage is found during the disassembly process. Our goal is to make the claims process as hands-off and stress-free for you as possible.

What if the insurance estimate is lower than your repair estimate? It is very common for initial insurance estimates to be lower because they often only cover visible damage. When you Contact Auto Body Shop professionals like our ASE-certified technicians, we perform a thorough diagnostic teardown to identify all structural and mechanical issues. We then submit a “supplement” to your insurance company to ensure every necessary repair is covered and paid for by the insurer, so you aren’t left with out-of-pocket costs beyond your deductible.

Do you offer assistance with deductibles or rental cars? We strive to make repairs affordable and convenient. When you Contact Auto Body Shop representatives, we can assist in coordinating your car rental directly through your insurance coverage so you stay mobile while your vehicle is in our shop. If you have questions about your specific deductible, please contact our office at +1-818-996-3636 to discuss how we can help manage your repair costs.
