Understanding Insurance Timelines in Collision Repair

When an insurance company sends a repair check, it’s not a bonus — it’s money meant to fix your car. We’ve seen people accidentally spend those funds, thinking it’s theirs, and then get stuck unable to complete the repairs. Insurance pays based on an estimate, and that money is supposed to go straight back into restoring your vehicle. If you’re ever unsure what a check is for, ask before you use it — it can save you from a costly mistake. #CertifiedCollisionCenter #CollisionRepair #InsuranceClai
