Minor collision, what to look out for. Advice

This site may earn commission on affiliate links.
Hi.

My morning did not get off to the best start as someone crashed in to me this morning.
I am going to get the damage assesed later on today and I was wondering if there are any particular things I should look out for or mention at the shop. The one the insurance company picked is Tesla certified.
It was a low speed collision, with my X suffering the most damage. Only bodywork visible, but when i started up it seemed like the front left camera was not working.
Any advice on what to do going ahead, or what to expect?

Thanks

Make sure the collision shop you work with is Tesla certified. Have them pre-order all the parts that are visibly broken and set up an appointment at least 8-12 weeks out to give enough time for the parts to arrive. Since your car looks driveable, this will shorten the time that you are stuck in a rental car. But expect a prolonged repair as parts take forever to get, unless you happen to have an actual Tesla-owned collision shop in your area.
