Auto Body Shop vs. Insurance.

It can be a cataclysmic clash of the titans, but it doesn’t have to be.  Insurance companies and auto body repair shops are sometimes at cross purposes.  Sometimes they don’t communicate at all because the insurance company has already pre-determined where you will go for repairs after an accident.

What if the head of the repair shop was once an insurance adjuster?  Wouldn’t that be a heck of an advantage?  Before Joe Bellacchio Jr. devoted his life to getting cars back on the roadways of Chicagoland looking as good as new, he was very successful in the insurance game.  I know, lucky us that he decided to help us with our vehicles!

Joe is the owner of Arrow Body and Fender located in Elmwood Park.  His father taught him well, and now he passes on the tradition of repairing cars after accidents and adds expertise when it comes to the messy business of dealing with your insurance provider.  You really are in good hands with Joe!  Just call (708) 456-9424.

Is it My Choice or Theirs?

It is a question asked by millions over the years.  When you have a car accident do you have to go to the body shop “recommended” by your insurance company?  Rest assured that you have a legal right to use the body shop of your choice.  Understand that basic premise and do not feel intimidated!

It’s important to know why insurance companies prefer certain auto body shops to others in the first place.  It may seem like common sense to trust in your carrier’s recommended auto body shops, especially since they’re the ones who are footing the bill to have your car fixed.  Unfortunately, there are too many cases in which an insurance company isn’t taking into account a policyholder’s best interests.

What is best for YOU?  Well, the 70 years of reputation behind Arrow Body and Fender is a good start.  When you trust Arrow Body and Fender for all of your car’s repair needs you know that seven decades of expertise go into that repair.  Why not get a quote?  Call (708) 456-9424.  Or, if you are able, stop in at their shop located at 7536 W. Grand Ave. in Elmwood Park.    

I Prefer My Own Body Shop.

Almost all insurance companies today have what are referred to as “DRP” or Direct Repair Programs.  A specific auto body shop that is a part of this program belongs to a referral network created by insurance companies.  Really?  So, the insurance companies pretty much dictate what you will do to restore your vehicle to “like new” condition no matter what you think.

Unfortunately, this kind of referral relationship often creates a conflict of interest as the repair facility considers the insurance company to be their customer...NOT YOU!  The insurance company, therefore, becomes their top priority, at the expense of the vehicle owner.  You may hear the words “that shop isn’t on our preferred network”.
