Paintless Dent Repair

Auto Collision Repair always starts with a thorough assessment of damages. If the extent and location of your vehicle’s damage allows it, then paintless dent repair is a quick and affordable solution to having your car fixed. It’s a great option for minor dings and dents.

For damages that do not allow for paintless dent repair, CARSTAR offers Conventional Repair as well, which includes expert structural and body repairs, followed by paint and refinish. This process usually takes a lot longer than PDR.

Auto Collision Repair FAQ

What do I do in case of an accident? First, stay calm. If there are injuries, call 911 immediately. Do not move your vehicle, unless you are in immediate danger and it would be safer to get your vehicle in a different location. You should get the name of the person (s) driving the other vehicle (s) involved along with their phone number, driver's license, vehicle license and insurance information. Call the insurance company and inform them of the accident. They will ask for details, so try to obtain any witness' name and phone number (s) and also note the location, time and date. Use your camera phone to take pictures of the scene, vehicle damage and witnesses.
How do I choose a body repairs shop? When you have an accident, you have the right to determine where you want your vehicle towed and where you to choose to have your vehicle repaired. You might want to do some research before you decide and take into account factors like whether or not they specialize in collision repairs, quality of repairs, customer service, location and more.

A high-quality collision repair shop will arrange towing for you, perform high-quality repairs and work with your insurance company. CARSTAR stores may offer a limited five-year nationwide warranty as an added benefit.
How does the auto collision process work? The repair process begins with you bringing your vehicle in for an estimate with a trained estimator. We will work with your insurance agent to process the repair claim. Our expert technicians will conduct a thorough disassembly of all damaged areas of the vehicle to determine any structural or mechanical damage. You will be presented with a detailed repair plan and if you give the go ahead, we will order the needed parts for your vehicle and then complete the repair. Once the repair is complete, we will conduct a detailed inspection of the interior and exterior of your vehicle to ensure a quality repair.
How much does it cost? The cost of the repairs depends greatly on the type of damage your vehicle suffered, the parts needed for the repairs, and the processes involved. Once the damage assessment is complete, you will be provided not only with a detailed repair plan, but also an estimate.

Your estimate should include a thorough inspection of the work to be done on your vehicle, a description of the repair parts to be used, what items your insurance will and will not cover and the expected amount of the repair. One of the reasons estimates may differ from another shop is thoroughness of the appraisal process. Some estimates may leave necessary repairs out of the initial estimate, causing the amount to be different from another facility. At CARSTAR we are thorough in identifying the steps necessary for a quality and safe repair for your vehicle.
How does the deductible work? The guilty party’s insurance usually covers the cost of the repairs. If that’s your insurance company, then you might have a deductible that you’ll have to cover. Your auto policy declaration pages will indicate the applicable deductible. It’s always important to double check the accuracy of your policy information with your insurance company before and after a loss. Your deductible is due when you pick up the vehicle after repairs are complete. Look for a body shop that offers financing for deductibles if you don't want to pay this out of pocket.
Why should I choose CARSTAR? We offer high quality auto collision repairs with state-of-the-art equipment and expert technicians.
