What to Do Immediately After a Car Accident.

It is something that no one wants to contemplate, but we should all be prepared to avoid panic at the accident scene.  If and when you are in an accident there are important things to do at the scene.  You may even want to print out this information and keep it in your glove box.
Never leave the accident scene until it is 100% handled.  If someone involved has injuries YOU could be facing criminal charges for a hit and run.

Check on every driver and passenger immediately instead of focusing on the material damage.  If someone is unconscious or has any sharp pains DO NOT TRY TO MOVE THEM unless an impending hazard requires you to do so.

Follow these next steps…1.) Call the police.  2.) Exchange information.  3.) Talk to witnesses if there are any.  4.) Inform your insurance company, and 5.) Take pictures.

When you have done your due diligence please remember to contact Arrow Body and Fender, your premier Chicago auto body shop at (708) 456-9424.  Your friends at Arrow will get you back on the road as soon as possible.

Auto Frame Repair

After a car accident the first thing you and your trusted auto body shop need to consider is what is involved in the overall repair of the frame of the vehicle.  Think of it like building a house. You start with the frame and build out. It is imperative that the mechanic you trust does the same with a collision repair job.  If the job is not done correctly additional parts or repairs may be required.

At Arrow Body and Fender we use our Star Liner frame unibody rack to reshape your frame back to its original dimensions - before parts are removed.  Then and only then we confirm that it meets the exact structural dimensions required by the manufacturer.

Remember…start with the frame and work your way from there.  For over 65 years Chicago has trusted Arrow Body and Fender of Elmwood Park.  They have repaired just about every make and model of vehicle over that time and you most certainly can trust them with yours.  Call Arrow Body and Fender at (708) 456-9424.
