Maintenance 159
Collision
An accident is an upsetting experience and collision repair is
often complicated and confusing. Know your rights as a conu-
mer during the collision repair process and make sure your vehi-
cle is properly repaired with the right parts. Properly repairing
your vehicle will help maintain its value.
Your Rights As A Consumer
As a consumer, you are within your rights to insist on original
equipment replacement parts. These genuine parts are made by
the manufacturer to meet stringent criteria for fit, finish, struc-
tural integrity, corrosion protection and dent resistance, just
like the parts that were originally on your vehicle.
