Why Stephanie Keeps Driven Collision’s Number Handy During Fall

We’re smack in the middle of the biggest season for car/deer accidents, as deer are far more active from October through December than other times of the year.

(Not So) Fun Fact: The odds of hitting a deer, moose or elk and filing an insurance claim because of it are 1 in 167, while the odds of being audited by the IRS are 1 in 175, according to State Farm. I'm not sure which one is more stressful, but I can tell you I've hit a deer in the past on my way to work.

I know how frustrating it is and how much damage it can do to your vehicle. It’s nerve-wracking not really knowing where to take your car to get fixed. I didn’t want to take it somewhere that would charge me more than necessary or make me feel like I was being taken advantage of. I had lots of questions. What if they don’t fix my car correctly? What if the paint job is horrible? Are they going to try and tell me I need more repairs than I actually do? And how long is it going to take to get my car back?

Driven Collision talks you through the whole process whether it’s a small dent, a new frame or getting the paint to match perfectly. They keep in constant contact with you to keep you posted on the status of your repair so you don’t have to try and guess when your car repairs will be finished.

They guarantee their work with a LIFETIME warranty. They handle all of the insurance paperwork for you once you’ve filed a claim. They offer a replacement vehicle so you don't have to worry about how you're going to get to work or get your kids to their activities.

And this is my favorite: They offer free estimates. You don’t even have to take the car in for an estimate. For smaller damages, you can simply send them a photo of the damage (with some other required information) and they’ll send you an estimate … often within 15 minutes.

I recently spent some time getting to know the Driven Collision team, and I wasn't surprised at all that they've received more than 100 reviews on Google and Facebook, including these:

So, if you have the unfortunate experience of getting in a crash this fall, don't hesitate to call my friends at Driven Collision at 517-977-0955 or visit them at dclansing.com. Tell them I sent you!
