    Sad!!! This is the reason customers don’t trust collision centers and put their trust in the billion dollar insurance company’s, who by the way is the biggest liars and untrustworthy ppl ever but it’s because of shops like this…instead of the shops moving forward, we now took a step backwards..
    Funny isn’t, how shops gets hit with fraud and yet 500 plus shops clearly has evident of fraud, Sherman Act violations, unfair and deceptive practice violations and steering violations against the insurance company but none of them ever got convicted…how the hell!!!!!
    What an unfair system, the judges gotta stop taking pay outs…
