Auto Body Shop
There are few things in life scarier or more stressful than getting into a car crash; even in a best-case scenario where no one is seriously injured, damage to your vehicle can be extensive. After a collision, you likely have a lot of worries and concerns, on top of many details to figure out and other things to deal with as you handle your insurance claim and other residual issues.
The last thing you need is to have trouble finding an auto body shop that can take care of your vehicle and handle the situation for you. That is why we are here to help with everything you need, and our expert teams can take care of it so you can get back on the road quickly.
Here at the LaFontaine Automotive Group, our service centers and body shops are fully equipped to assist you with anything you need—and not just routine maintenance, but repairs and bodywork after a collision. We have extensive experience working with insurance companies to keep things simple for you, so you have fewer things to worry about.
Plus, with our Collision Care + program, we will reimburse you for up to $500 of your deductible, so you pay less out of pocket and have one less problem to deal with. After any collision, give one of our service centers a call or contact us online for assistance, and let us take some of the stress and worry off your shoulders for you.
Expert Body & Collision Repairs
When it comes to taking great care of vehicles, our teams are here to assist with anything you need, no matter what you drive. Our dealerships sell a wide range of models, including brands under the General Motors umbrella, as well as Jeep, Ford, Toyota, and many more.
We are happy to work on any vehicle from the brands we sell, but the experience of our trained technicians goes far beyond that. Our teams can work on just about anything out there; whether you bought your vehicle from one of our dealerships or not, we are ready to help you after a collision.
Outside of some rare exceptions where repairs have to be done by a specific manufacturer's facility, you can count on our expert body shops to help with anything you need. Whether you have been in a minor fender-bender or have sustained more significant damage to your vehicle, we will thoroughly inspect it and handle everything your car needs.
It does not matter to us whether you have a sedan from a decade ago, a new SUV with less than 10,000 miles, or a powerful truck you rely on to keep doing your job; our team can help. And since we have a number of body shops and service centers for you to choose from, it is easy to find a location near you.
Help for Non-Collision Damage
Although we talk a lot about helping people after a collision, as we are quite passionate about it, damage to your vehicle can occur at other times without being involved in a crash. If you can imagine it, there is a good chance our team has seen it.
From serious hailstorms that can crack windshields or dent body panels to falling tree branches and road debris getting kicked up by a large truck, in these kinds of events, it can be even more difficult to know the extent of damage to your vehicle, since things might not be as obvious as the impact from a collision between two vehicles.
That is why it is important that you let our experts take care of things for you and make sure your vehicle is at its best. No matter what caused the damage to your vehicle, our teams are ready to inspect it, identify any issues, and address them promptly.
Keep in mind that minor damage can get worse if left untreated, so be sure to let us work on your vehicle right away. A small amount of rust is pretty easy to fix and can often be addressed with minor work; if left alone, however, it can grow into a major problem that has to be cut out and repaired.
Give Your Vehicle the Best Care
We know it can be tempting to look for the cheapest solution and choose that every time, even if it means taking your vehicle to a shop you have never heard of, with no reviews or little information available about it.
Doing so can be a huge mistake, however, because you need to know that the people working on your car can be trusted. For one thing, you'll have the peace of mind that comes from knowing your vehicle is in the best hands. After a collision, you deserve to know that repairs were done properly on your car.
Damage from a crash or environmental factors can compromise your vehicle's safety, which is why it is so important that repairs are done properly. With our expert teams working for you, it is easy to know that work was done correctly and that your vehicle is in great shape.
What's more, you need certified technicians using the right equipment and parts when working on your vehicle to protect your warranty coverage and avoid future issues. If you let your neighbor fix your vehicle after a crash, but they miss damage to your brakes that might then cause another collision, you could be liable for that one, since you did not have your vehicle fixed properly—so always stick with expert repairs.
Take Advantage of Collision Care +
Our goal at all our dealerships is to provide you with excellent customer service and ensure you have the best possible experience. This is why we focus on listening to everyone who comes to us and helping them find the right vehicle every time.
Beyond selling cars, however, we are equally committed to ensuring everyone we help enjoys their vehicle for as long as possible. This is why our service centers provide maintenance and repairs for our customers, and it's why we have developed additional programs to help you get the most from your ride with fewer headaches.
With our Collision Care + program, you enjoy added peace of mind every time you get behind the wheel because you'll know you are covered. This program provides you with some deductible coverage after a collision, helping you with the expenses beyond your car insurance.
We all know how easy it is for life to throw the unexpected at you, which is why it helps to know there are folks who'll have your back and will help take care of you if things get bad. Your car insurance already provides you with a lot of coverage to help with that, but your deductible can still be a big chunk of change that can make a bad situation even more stressful, so let us take some worry off your shoulders.
Less Money Out of Your Pocket
First and foremost, our Collision Care + program provides you with some financial assistance in the event of a collision that is covered by your insurance. All you have to do is enroll in our program, and you are covered. After an event that is covered by your auto insurance, and they pay for a collision or comprehensive claim, you can file with us for reimbursement for up to $500 of your deductible per incident.
There are no extra hoops to jump through or added stress to worry about; simply let us help with things by taking some of the financial burden off you. This is just one more way we work hard to provide you with the best shopping and driving experience possible, so you can focus on the things in life that matter most.
Long-Term Protection for All Vehicles
Not only does our Collision Care + program provide you with added peace of mind by reimbursing you for some of your deductible, but we also offer this coverage without any unnecessary restrictions. Once you enroll in this program, we provide you with three years of coverage, so you know we have your back for a long time.
What's more, during this coverage term, every vehicle you own and insure under your name is covered. So even if you have three vehicles in your household that you own and insure, all of them are protected under our Collision Care + program.
Even better, there is no limit on how many claims you can file during the three years of coverage you enjoy after enrolling. Seriously—there's no yearly limit, vehicle limit, or other restriction on how often you can take advantage of this program (although we hope you will not have to file an insurance claim too often, for your own well-being).
Whatever life throws at you, you can rest assured that we have your back, and our teams will go above and beyond to provide unbeatable service while handling everything you need.
Choose Your Preferred Body Shop
For a variety of reasons, insurance companies can strongly suggest (almost making it seem like a requirement) that you take your vehicle to a particular body shop after a crash. In reality, however, this is only a recommendation, and they cannot force you to choose their shop.
You have the right to take your vehicle wherever you want for collision care and bodywork, ensuring you can choose people you know you can trust. We have a tremendous amount of experience working on vehicles after collisions, so we can help streamline the process for you, provide clear information throughout each step, and make things hassle-free.
And since we use original equipment manufacturer (OEM) parts whenever possible, you know you can count on our work and drive away in a vehicle that's at its best.
We Make Repairs & Bodywork Easier
We have already mentioned some ways we make your life easier, such as how our Collision Care + program helps cover your insurance deductible. When it comes to getting the work your vehicle needs, we go above and beyond to assist and minimize interruptions to your life.
For example, our Collision Care + program includes complimentary loaner vehicles any time we provide covered work on your vehicle, so you do not have to put your life on hold while we handle repairs or bodywork for you.
Even if you choose not to enroll in one of our programs, we want to make things easier for you when getting the care your vehicle needs. We offer loaner vehicles to many of our body shop customers, ensuring you can take care of what you need to do each day.
We also have on-site rental options if that works better for you, or if your insurance includes rental coverage after a collision. And with easy pick-up and delivery available, we can come get your vehicle, work on it at our cutting-edge facilities, and then bring it back to you. No matter what you need, you can count on us to help.
See Us for Specialized Cosmetic Services
Sometimes, bodywork is needed after a serious collision that leaves you with major damage to your vehicle that needs to be repaired. Other times, work can be pretty minimal but just as important, even if only to keep your vehicle looking great.
We are happy to help with a wide range of services, including cosmetic repairs that ensure you feel good about your car as you drive each day. Few things are more irritating than finding a scratch in your paint left by a reckless driver who parked too close to you. We offer paint-matching services to find the perfect cover-up color and fix those scratches for you in no time.
Minor dents and dings to your vehicle can also be frustrating. While it is tempting to watch a video online and try to fix something yourself, that can often result in further damage or making things worse. Our experts can handle this for you and ensure any such damage is repaired properly.
Similarly, a small chip in your windshield is not just a nuisance; it can obstruct your vision and pose a real hazard. Let us properly take care of these minor cosmetic issues for you to avoid them growing into bigger problems.
Keep Your Vehicle in Shape for a Long Time
We have already mentioned the importance of keeping your vehicle in great shape for a long time, but we cannot stress it enough. Proper maintenance, like oil changes and tire rotations, is vital, of course, but bodywork can also help keep your vehicle at its best for many years.
Rust is one of the biggest dangers to vehicles, and no matter how hard you try to avoid it, some rust is just about inevitable. The solution is to fix rust when you first find it and it's still easy to deal with, rather than letting it grow into a major issue.
When found early, rust remediation is relatively simple, and we can often take care of it without any serious bodywork and further repairs. If things get worse, we can help with that too and handle everything to ensure your vehicle's body and frame are in great shape.
The last thing you want is for something that seems cosmetic to actually compromise the structure of your car and put you at risk as you drive. Let our experts take great care of your vehicle, handle all kinds of work, and make sure you keep getting the most from your ride for many years.
