I got into a fender bender (my fault). I have passenger side front damage. I submitted a claim and the estimate seemed similar to what he quoted.
Well, months before the accident my car was keyed on the driver side on three panels. So while at the shop I showed him the scratches. I figured I’ll get this fixed as well. I submitted a vandalism claim. The guy at the shop said it would be around $1500 to fix. My deductible is $1000. So I agreed to have them do both jobs. I was told I have to pay two separate deductibles. Well, I get the estimate for the scratches and it says it is for driver side “ Tbone collision” and the insurance is billed more than double what he quoted. I haven’t spoken to the shop since I dropped the car off. It’s 10pm at night and I’m just seeing the estimate thru the app. I am not sure how to approach this. The key scratches on the side look nothing like a tbone collision. How does the adjuster sign off on this?
Not sure how to approach this. I would appreciate any advice.
