Insurance questions from Jamaica drivers
Do I have to accept the first total-loss offer?
No. Carriers' first offers are often low. You can document recent comparable sales to negotiate up. We've helped customers add 15–25% to a low first offer.
Do you tow vehicles to your shop?
Yes — we coordinate towing if your vehicle isn't drivable. Towing is usually billed through your insurance roadside coverage or as part of the claim.
What is a deductible?
Your deductible is the amount you pay out-of-pocket on a claim before insurance pays. Typical deductibles run $250–$1,500.
How much does paintless dent repair cost?
Single door ding $75–$200. Larger dents $200–$500. Multiple dents $300–$800. Full-vehicle hail damage is typically covered by comprehensive insurance.

Damaged panels come off, photos are taken at every stage, hidden damage is documented for the supplement, and a final repair plan is built before parts are ordered. Customers see photos throughout.
Will my Tesla warranty be affected by collision repair?
