A:
No. We provide a free estimate service for all customers. The estimates are done by highly qualified individuals using the most up to date crash texts and computer estimating system available. As the owner of a motor vehicle damaged in an accident, you have the right to choose the shop where you wish to have your vehicle repaired. This is the law!
Q:

A:
No. Do not waste your time or that of several shops getting estimates. Select a repair facility that you feel comfortable with, then notify your agent or insurance company, or ask the shop to make the call on your behalf. Your insurance adjuster may have to inspect the damage. This can be done at an insurance drive thru claim center or at the shop you have chosen.

Does Joe Holland carry the parts needed to repair my vehicle?
A:
In most cases the answer would be "yes". However, no repair facility, regardless of how large or small, can anticipate every part that will be needed to make a repair. We at Joe Holland have access to the parts inventories of other dealers in the vicinity from which parts may be obtained. In the event that parts are unavailable locally, the parts will be ordered directly from the manufacturer. If this occurs, the average time involved is approximately one (1) business day to two (2) weeks for delivery.

Yes. There is a twelve (12) month warranty on General Motors (GM) parts and labor performed. Warranty on non-GM parts varies from manufacturer to manufacturer. We will help you to obtain this information.

Occasionally, checks are issued by insurance companies made payable to financial institutions. Please understand ALL endorsements must be present before we can accept a check for payment.
