INSURANCE FAQS

If youve recently had damage to your vehicle. First we hope everyone is ok. Second, there are some things you need to be aware of. NOT ALL INS. COMPANYS PLAY NICE, OR FAIR. Some ins. companys will try to direct you to there perfered shops. Using tactics like telling you you have to go there for several different reasons like. We only work with them. We only pay full price if you go were we want. If you want to go elsewhere, we will need three estimates. We can only warrenty work done by our shop.  None of this is true. It is state law that you have the right to go anywhere you wish to have your vehicle fixed. All good shops warrenty there work or shouldnt be doing business. You are only required by law to get one estimate. Never let an ins. adjuster come to your house and hand you a check for repairs without having a trained estimater look at it first. Once you cash that check. Your insurance company can by law walk away. If at all possible take the vehicle to the repair facilty of your choice and have the adjuster come there. Also remember. Its your vehicle not the ins. companys. You pay the the ins. costs. They work for you. Dont let them tell you how it will be fixed, or let them cut corners on your vehicle at one of there perfered shops.

• Faulty ignition components will cause bad fuel mileage, as well as poor performance. Most tune ups are good for 150 thousand miles. Have yours checked if your close.
• Keep the take full. A full take uses less gas than a tank half full or less. A low tank can cause problems with fuel pumps heating up over time.
