Cost and timeline questions from Co-op City customers
Is unibody the same as frame?
Functionally similar but technically different. Unibody construction integrates the frame into the body shell. Repair procedures are different — we run computerized measurement and OEM-spec pull procedures for both.
Do you handle vandalism repair?
Yes — keyed panels, broken mirrors, scratch damage. Comprehensive insurance typically covers vandalism. We bill direct.
Will filing a claim cancel my policy?
Single claims rarely lead to cancellation. Multiple at-fault claims in a short window can. Comprehensive claims (vandalism, hail) are lower-risk than at-fault collision.
Do you use OEM or aftermarket parts?
We push for OEM on safety-critical components and when warranty preservation matters. Aftermarket can be appropriate for cosmetic work. We always tell you which is being used.
Can PDR fix a sharp crease?
Yes, in most cases. Sharp creases need more time than rounded dents but PDR can usually restore them without paint. Paint-broken creases need traditional repair.
