If the repairs to my car exceed the insurance estimates, will I get stuck paying the difference?
No, unlike other businesses, an estimate is not a locked in amount except in unusual cases. in collision repair, the estimate is the starting print used by the insurance company and the shop. Once the car is disassembled, the shop notifies the insurance company that a list has been compiled items that were not seen when the original estimate was written. the insurance company then sends out a person to go over the additions and once verified and completed, to make a “supplemental” payment to the shop. the customer is kept informed throughout the process sot hey know what other repairs were done to their car.
