Insurance Claims

Insurance companies are an important part of the collision repair process. D&M Auto Body works closely with all insurance companies to make your repair as seamless and worry free as possible. We handle all the details of the claim process and negotiate with appraisers so you are reimbursed for the highest quality repair possible. New Jersey drivers pay some of the highest insurance premiums in the country. Knowing this, we feel you deserve the best possible repair for your money, not the cheapest.

Your insurance company may suggest taking your car to another auto body shop that is on their “preferred list”. Their suggestion might even sound like you have no choice but to take it to the shop they recommend. This practice is calling “steering” by the insurer and it is against the law. Insurance companies are only allowed to recommend a shop if you ask them for a referral. You always have the right to choose which shop repairs your vehicle. Especially one that you used before and are happy with.

In most insurance referral programs the insurance company becomes the primary customer to the referred shop. The insurer’s best interests are considered first, not yours. Many insurance companies try to cut repair costs by requiring their preferred shops use cheap and potentially harmful repair techniques. This may include low cost parts and discounts back to the insurer. You pay full price for insurance and assume you will receive a quality repair when using it. At D&M Auto Body we insure you do.

D&M Auto Body has several insurance relationships with insurers that we feel pay for a fair & reasonable repair. If you are having difficulties with you current insurance company, let us know. When making a claim, we know firsthand which companies take the best care of their policyholders. Mention this to us and we will be happy to offer a recommendation. D&M Auto Body has earned our great reputation by always putting our customers first. YOU are our customer, not the insurance company.
