Negotiating with your insurance company after a collision can be a headache, but it's important that all drivers know the rights they're entitled to after a car accident. For instance:
- You have the right to select which collision center repairs your vehicle. Your insurance company can't require you to use their preferred collision center.
- You have the right to decide what type of parts will be used during the repair process.
- You aren't required to release your vehicle to the collision center to begin repairs until you're ready to do so.
Understanding Your Estimate
We strongly recommend reviewing your completed estimate before repairs to your vehicle begin. Your estimate will specify what work will be performed and which parts will be used in your repairs. If you have any questions or concerns about the estimate you receive, our team is here to help address those inquiries and make sure you're confident about the repairs that will be made to your vehicle.
What Are the Benefits of OEM Ford Parts After a Collision?
Because insurance companies try to keep repair costs down, they'll often specify the use of aftermarket, remanufactured, or even salvaged parts. However, this can lead to parts that don't have the same fit, finish, quality, and durability of original Ford parts. Using OEM Ford parts is preferable for a variety of reasons, including:
- Genuine Ford parts are specially engineered and manufactured to fit your Ford model
- Authentic Ford parts offer higher quality materials and a more precise fit
- Ford's precise manufacturing standards deliver longer-lasting performance than aftermarket parts can offer
- Modern vehicles' safety and driver-assistance systems are increasingly reliant on smoothly functioning parts for optimal safety and performance
