Insurance Approval versus the Manufacturer Approval
We at Hilton Coachworks value your safety and the quality of your repairs.
The insurance company sells you insurance, but they are not experts in prestige repairs. You are the arbiter of the quality of your repairs.
Insurers answer to shareholders, while Hilton Coachworks answers to you. Hilton Coachworks stands on the side of the car manufacturers who want to insure the continuing high reputation of their cars, both on the new and second-hand markets.
- While insurers focus on providing a satisfactory repair at the lowest cost, Hilton Coachworks and the prestige car manufacturers focus on the original standard by which your car was built.
- Insurance companies are based on the lowest-bid, not the highest quality.
- Insurance companies try to force body repair shops to reduce the costs of labour and materials, not increase the quality of the result
- Insurance companies have a DUTY OF CARE to you, the policy holder, to ensure that your vehicle is repaired to its preaccident standard.
You pay a high premium to cover your prestige car. You should expect a high level of repair if your car is damaged in an accident. Need an experienced car repair shop for your high-end car? Ask yourself these questions:
- How can I assure that my car will drive as well after repairs as it did before I had the accident?
- Will my resale value be substantially affected by the poor quality of repairs?
- If there is a problem with the repairs in the future, how can I be assured that the repairs will be cared for after the insurance company has settled.
Bring your car to us at Hilton Coachworks. We stand behind our repairs, with you and with the manufacturer, not with the insurance company.
