DON'T LISTEN...WHEN YOUR INSURANCE COMPANY TELLS YOU : 

"Take your new Chevrolet to a Ford bodyshop"

That just doesn't make any sense. Lakewood knows your vehicle best and we have the parts.

According to law you have the right to choose your repair shop and the insurance company is required to inform you of that.  Bring it back to your dealership. Do it right.

"We can't guarantee the work done at Lakewood"

Lakewood guarantees our work for as long as you own the vehicle. What is wrong with the shop they are sending you to ? Does the insurance company have to guarantee the work because the shop won't ? If the shop will then the insurance company is deceiving you. Why guarantee the work of a shop that guarantees it's work ? Insurance double speak ?

"We want you to go to our preferred bodyshop" 

They can fix their own cars at their preferred shop, you fix yours at your preferred shop;  Lakewood Chevrolet.  If there is a disagreement do you want the shop on the insurance company's side or on your side? We work for you, the preferred shop works for the insurance company! The law says it is your right to choose the repair facility.

"Lakewood might charge you more or extrabill"

 We repair your vehicle as per the insurance company's estimate just like any other bodyshop.

"You won't have to pay for betterment or depreciation if you go to our preferred shop"

Just call us and we will match any "incentives" your insurance company is offerring to get you to go to their preferred shop. Is it worth it if you end up with non-GM parts and a compromised warranty?

"Quality Replacement Parts (QRP) are just as good as OEM GM parts"

GM does NOT warranty any nonGM parts. If your vehicle is still covered by Factory Warranty I recommend you use only new OEM GM parts for any autobody repairs. Keep your GM a GM!

"Quality Replacement" or "Aftermarket" parts are cheaper and often don't fit as well. It is easy for the insurance company to say they are just as good, they don't have to install them or modify them to fit. These parts are great for when your vehicle is a little older, off warranty and you want to save some money.
