KNOW YOUR RIGHTS!
Did you know you have the right to choose the Collision Repair Shop of your choice? You do not have to use the "cheapest shop".
Everyone knows that the cheapest is not always the best.
You only need to choose the shop of YOUR choice and the insurance company will work with them.
Don't let insurance companies mislead you! For automotive claims, your insurance company may instruct you to call a 1-800 number to report your claim. In some cases, you will actually be talking to an automotive claims network, not your insurance company. The conglomerate that owns and operates that network may, in fact, represent themselves as the insurance company.
The claims center may tell you:
... The automotive repair shop you requested is not on their list of "approved shops".
...That if you do not use a shop on their list you may not have a warranty.
...That you may have out-of-pocket expense if you use another shop.
Schlossmann Auto Body is on a direct repair program list and prides itself in our relationships.
We also pride oursleves on offering the highest quality workmanship and customer service possible, which is second to none.
We offer a LIFETIME WRITTEN WARRANTY on all completed work.
We encourage you to ask us about "Line-by-Line Estimate Matching" which will help explain the differences between two estimates.
We also would like the opportunity to serve you with our friendly, helpful staff, experienced and knowledgeable technicians.
We also offer our Complimentary Detail Package for all collision repairs.
So...JUST SAY "NO THANKS",
I am taking it to
Schlossmann Auto Body,
and make the right choice!

your insurance company
your insurance company
Do I have the right to select the
shop of my choice to repair my vehicle?
Yes, as the vehicle owner you decide where, when and how that vehicle is repaired.
Must I notify my insurance company?
Yes. Insurance policies require that you notify the company or your agent as soon as possible after an accident.
Do I need to get more than one estimate?
No. Only one estimate of damage report is necessary from the repair facility of your choice. However, the insurance company may want to have their own adjuster inspect the damage.
If your vehicle is not safe to drive, simply have it towed to the repair shop of your choice. When you notify your insurance company about the accident, tell them that the vehicle is not drivable and where it may be inspected.
Who is responsible for paying the repair bill?
You are. The vehicle owner must arrange for payment of the repair bill. Insurance policies state that the insurer will reimburse you for the cost of repairs less any deductible or depreciation. You can instruct your insurance company to pay the repair shop directly, but make sure that the payment is in the hands of the repair shop when you pick up your car.
Who is responsible for the quality of repairs?
The repair facility. It is important for you to select a repair shop with properly trained technicians and the equipment necessary to restore your vehicle to its pre-accident condition.
What can I do if I have a problem with the way my insurance company is processing or settling my claim?
You have the right to contact the Wisconsin Insurance Commissioner's office, the agency charged with regulating and disciplining the insurance industry. The Commissioner's Office cannot by itself resolve damage, coverage or liability disputes, but it can obtain written explanations from insurance companies regarding their positions. Having a written explanation may be useful to you if you have to resort to litigation to resolve a dispute with an insurance company.
