Hello everyone,
My first ever accident, I gotten rear-ended on my 4 months old M3 yesterday on the I90 in bumper-to-bumper traffic . Luckily all of us are safe and escaped it with only the rear bumper scuffed and some paint damage. Upon calling the police, they said they dont write reports for such events and we just had to exchange our insurance information. He gave me his insurance card but denied giving out his ID and just drove away instead of pulling over - which was frustrating. I called his insurance and filed a report and is still to hear from them. For folks with prior such experiences, is there anything I have to watch out for in-terms of handling with the insurance company ?
I would have to get my read bumper inspected and repaired. I see that there are 4 SC's around here: Watertown, Dedham, Norwell and Peabody. I have heard mixed reviews of customer service experience at these centers, was hoping if folks around here would recommended one more than the other ? How much do they typically charge for damage's like this ? Would I need a full bumper replacement ?
