If you’ve been in an accident in which you caused minor damage to another car, it can be a confusing experience.  We’ve had many customers who have been through this and often their number one question is, “What do I do now?”  Of course no one intends to damage another car, so when it does happen it can feel embarrassing, frustrating—you name it.  But try not to worry, because I’m going to guide you through all the steps you’ll need to take in order to put this behind you as quickly as possible.

When you’ve been in a car accident, the whole process afterwards of getting your car repaired can seem more complicated than necessary.  If you’re feeling overwhelmed, you’re not alone. 

We get this question a lot.  Any time a technician has to cut into your car, it becomes altered from the way it left the factory. However, a good body shop and a good technician can put it back exactly the way it left the factory.

We’ve talked a lot lately about peeling clear coats on cars, but an equally frustrating automotive paint problem is rust.  It’s not only unsightly, but also very destructive to your vehicle over time.  As with most other car problems, rust is something you are going to want to eliminate as soon as it rears its ugly head. 

One big car problem that we’ve seen plenty of here at O’Rielly Collision Center is delamination.  Delamination is just a fancy word for what happens when a car’s clear coat begins to peel away from the layer of paint beneath it.  It can look like a flaking, rough patch on your car and it’s definitely not pretty.  Delamination usually starts off fairly minor, but can spread rapidly if it’s not repaired.

If you’ve been found at-fault in an automobile accident, it is understandable if you’re upset.  Being labeled “at-fault” means that your car insurance rates are probably going to go up and you might even be responsible for paying someone else’s medical expenses.  The case becomes even worse if you didn’t feel that you were to blame for the accident that occurred. 

When you bought your car, how important was it for you to find the right color?  For many of us, selecting the color of our vehicles can be a big deal.  For instance, some people prefer red cars.  But not just ANY red—maybe it’s a specific shade of maroon.  Or cherry.  Or burgundy.  (You get the idea.)
