Insurance companies by law are not allowed to force you or co-orce you into picking a body shop of their choice.
If they did anything that prevented you from taking it to a bodyshop of your choice, they should be reported.
You bring the car to your dealership, they will send their appraiser over -- that's how it's supposed to work.
I CANNOT STRESS THIS ENOUGH PEOPLE.. IF YOU END UP IN AN ACCIDENT, THE INSURANCE COMPANY HAS NO SAY IN WHERE THE CAR GOES. DON'T EVEN LISTEN TO THEM... THEY ARE REQUIRED BY LAW TO WORK WITH YOUR SHOP OF YOUR CHOICE!!!
Every insurance company I've delt with will stop feeding me their company line the moment I say, "ontario law states that I am in my rights to take the car to the shop of my choice"... well, except when dealing with american insurance adjusters... but then I just back to my own company and have them sort it out.
