[QUOTE="Mountain Sloth, post: 3047207, member: 102638"] With it being a newer vehicle, some shops (this is coming from my father in law who works at a body shop) especially if they "certified" to work on certain makes, have a procedure to follow to make sure the vehicle is safe. Recalibrating sensors, actually welding vs gluing pieces. This all takes time and money to do. I'd imagine if there were a sensor in the portions damaged that say gives you the ability to start on an incline without rolling back, its not fixed properly and you roll back into someone. Liability should be on the shop for not fixing your vehicle to standard. Insurance companies are much more worried about buying baseball stadiums than keeping premiums reasonable. In the end the insured party is who actually owes you for damages, you are just choosing to work with their insurance company for convenience. Statefarm is also the worst, spent a month arguing with them about my truck being totaled after their insured tboned me. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
