Know Your Rights

Dealing with the stress of a collision is hard enough without trying to figure out how your accident insurance works. Here are some answers to frequently-asked questions about insurance policies.

Will the insurance company guarantee your work?

We guarantee our own work, but the insurance company does not have the legal right to guarantee a third party's work.

Who pays for repairs?

It depends on the circumstances. If you were at fault, but have comprehensive or collision insurance, the insurance company would pay the costs minus your deductible. If the other party was at fault, their insurance company should pay.

Do I have to accept the insurance company's appraisal of damage?

No. Check the "Appraisal Clause" in your policy if you have differences with their appraisal. It allows you and the insurance company to gather an opinion from an appraiser you both agree upon, or a third-party "Umpire" if you cannot agree.

Do I have the right to a rental car?

If you have purchased rental car coverage and were not responsible for the accident, you may seek reimbursement from the insurance company or, if another driver was responsible for the accident, their insurance company.

If you do not have rental car coverage and were responsible for the accident, you have no grounds to ask for reimbursement. If the other driver was liable, you can generally seek reimbursement from their insurance company.

what our customers say

Great experience! Klent bent over backwards to help me. He does great work for a fair price. Here is a man of his word and puts the best interest of the customer first! Highly recommend!

I thought my car was going to get new control arms. BUT, I didn't because Klent went through it with a fine tooth comb. I appreciate his professionalism and most of all his honesty. Thank you for giving me hope that there are still people like you. Big ups and God bless you all at Familia Automotive.

I had a great experience, staff was so friendly, I took my Dodge Ram for a AC recharge, great and affordable pricing and they were fast, when I received my truck back man it blew so cold just like when I had originally purchased my truck. Definitely recommend them.
R

Very kind and courteous. They took a look at my car and provided information for a shop that can do the potential repairs to the engine since it would require certain equipment. They did do a diagnostic and were able to put some of my concerns to rest.

I was looking for a repair shop for my cars and came across Familia Automotive. I brought 2 of my cars in for diagnostic checks. Klent was very up front, friendly and professional. I will definitely be doing business here again, as well as recommending to family and friends.

Took my car to Robles Automotive to get it fixed. Robles had my car for months, finally got it, fix cost over 7 hundred dollars and still did not fix it. Went to Familia Automotive and they did an excellent job and was cheaper with a longer warranty. No more issues, car runs great and been going there since. Gets the job done.
