You have the right to choose a repair shop to fix your vehicle. Once you’ve informed the insurance representative that you’ve selected a repair facility, it’s illegal for them to try to influence you to take it somewhere else. STAY INFORMED. YOUR VOICE MATTERS! 📝

Here’s what every driver should know:
1) You have the legal right to choose your repair shop.
2) Once you’ve told your insurer your choice, they cannot try to influence you to go elsewhere.
3) Scare tactics such as "That shop isn’t on our list" or "Repairs will be delayed" are misleading.
4) The shop you select is responsible for the quality and warranty of repairs. NOT your insurance company.
