OK, we’ll admit it first: your friendly neighborhood collision repair Scottsdale specialists never really experience the Winter Blues.

Hey, we’re all Phoenecians here, so let’s be honest: while other body shops across the nation scramble at restoring and repairing vehicle after vehicle that skids across ice and delivers a hip-check that would make a Phoenix Coyotes defenseman applaud, the collision repair Scottsdale experts you know and love just keep satisfying customers who are as satisfied by our work in January as they would be in July.

We’d lend our luck to America’s insurance professionals, that the luck of a collision repair Scottsdale pro could rub off. Reports suggest, per J.D. Power and Associates, that auto insurance policyholders register less satisfaction with claims service throughout the winter months. The latest reports actually indicate a dip that J.D. Power chalks up to a general holiday tension not necessarily having to do with claims service being any better or worse, but just a general unpleasant mood. The findings are based on roughly 2,800 auto claimants responses collected between November and December 2012.

An average $30 jump in out-of-pocket expense increases – sure, some probably paid to body shops across the country not unlike our own collision repair Scottsdale garage – could very well exacerbate already simmering stressors.

Of course, we understand. Collision repair Scottsdale shops in snowier climes experience a “clumping” of business when winter weather causes accidents, since so many drivers put off seeking out estimates to repair damages. As opposed to a previous study’s reported average waiting period of 2.9 days to retrieve a repair estimate, the average wait through the winter months nationwide jumps to 3.3 days.

Collision repair Scottsdale shops can sometimes turn around jobs faster if they’re situated within major insurance carriers’ networks. Closer relationships with collision repair Scottsdale businesses mean that major carriers’ claimants get their cars back on the road an average of 1.3 days faster from carrier-affiliated collision repair Scottsdale shops, J.D. Power reports.

Of course, keep one thing in mind: even your collision repair Scottsdale friends want you in our shop as little as possible. The less we see you, the safer we know you’re driving…
