Nancy your car sounds like it might still not be safe to drive. Go to the ICAN or ICAN 2000 website and look for a shop in your area that does – post repair inspections. Insurance company employees generally don’t know how to repair cars, and should never tell shops how or if a car should be repaired. It sounds like the shop thinks the insurer is the customer and not you.

I had a collision a one year old Acura and let me tell you Nationwide was NOT on my side. The repair shop had my car for over 6 months and additional time for doing all the other things discovered after the return. The body shop begged the adjuster to total the car, he would not and now I am still having problems with this car including diminuted value for all my warranties. It is a nightmare.
After I got the car back the first time, I had trouble stopping. Seems a major bolt to the frame was not on and I almost got killed.
Then it was the windshield which was not up to standard.
Then it was my radio.
Then it was my tires wearing badly.
Now it it my sunroof which they never replaced the tracks and never opening it since the accident all the tracks are broken inside my frame. Warranty not honored due to accident. I have had it anyone who knows anything please email me.

I have been around collision repair business my whole life. I have worked with Nationwide insurance adjusters a number of years. For the most part they are good people who have had their souls removed by some regional manager who was summon from hell to make these poor souls second guess themselves on a daily basis. I have never met a happy adjuster. But a long time ago the heavens opened up and down came a claims manager who knew his stuff. He was a godsend to the collision repair business. The quarterly numbers soared and the bar was set high. He was the Man. Well as always someone up the ladder felt threaten by this outstanding performance and banished this heaven sent person. Although he was banished his numbers were still untouchable. This is now a problem not only for the next claims adjuster but the collision repair shops. The numbers were so outstanding no creature from Hell could touch them. They became angry and reign terror down on the collision repair shops. There will be no respect for a claims manager with no balls and who has no clue how to motivate the shops to once again reach the level where the sun shines and everything is right with the world. Until claim managers can stand up and think like concern business people and treat the shops like the professional business they are the numbers will be out of reach, just like the pay raises.

The insurance companies should start teaching the realistic way a vehicle is repaired and how things work in the real world and stop trying to squeeze every penny from people who actually work for it, then maybe everyones life would run a lot smoother and everyone would actually save money and make money. Insurance companies are so focused on cutting their cost that they have NO idea how much money they are wasting (it’s a joke). The solutions are simple but implementing them are impossible. In the 12 years I have been in the business I have seen so many mistakes made by insurance reps. and I know because I do there jobs everyday. If I ever look for another job I will either work for an insurance co. or parts dept. because in both jobs you really do not have to have any idea what you are doing and someone else will do your job. The problems go way beyond what outsiders actually see, only if you work in a body shop and have a heart and soul could you understand the severity of the situation. The only way things will change are if the insurance companies are goverened, held responsible for their actions and are made to understand how the business really works.

Thats pretty amusing MB.What do you consider a jig?I had to eat sour grapes for 6 years.I’m assuming your saying I was an ineffient employee?I dont understand why your making comments about me when Nationwide Ins should be the focus.I am just stating my opinion on what everyone in this industry already knows,Nationwide Ins is one of the 2 worst insurers in CT.Please debate that fact and stop worrying about me, a jig, and some sour grapes,your just wasting space.
