Some Answers to Your
Frequently Asked Questions

A) Yes, We can fix your car! We work on ALL makes and models of vehicles, foreign and domestic.

A) Not at Dingmans! You may stop by during our business hours whenever it’s convenient for you.

A) On average, it takes 15 – 20 minutes. Times vary depending on the extent of the damage to the vehicle.

A) Nebraska law does not require a party to get more than one estimate for collision repair. Choose the body shop shop of your choice and have an estimate prepared. If repairs are to be handled under an insurance claim, sometimes the insurance company will write their own estimate. After the insurance company has prepared their estimate, take it to the auto body shop of your choice for collision repairs.

A) Yes, you can have your collision damage repaired at Dingman’s Collision Center. By law, where you take your vehicle for auto body repair is your choice. It is illegal for the insurance company to direct you to go to one of their “preferred” or “network” shops. This practice is called “steering,” and is against the law. If you feel like the insurance company is pressuring you against your will, please contact us. We can assist you in dealing with the insurance company and getting your vehicle’s collision damage properly repaired.

At Dingman’s, we work for you, not your insurance company.

A) At Dingman’s we try to write the most complete collision repair estimate possible the first time, and the insurance company may have only written the most “obvious” damage.

Please bring the insurance estimate in with you and we will go over the differences with you. If necessary, we will have the adjustor come out to go over the required repairs that were not included in their original estimate. Dingman’s will work with the insurance company to get all repairs completed properly. The estimate difference will be paid for by the insurer; you will incur no out of pocket expenses for related damages.

A) Only if you have rental car coverage on your policy. Car rental insurance is not usually a large expense to add to your policy, however not having it can turn into a large expense. Check with your agent to find out if you have rental coverage on your policy, and if not, how much it would be to add.

If you are a claimant against another party, it is required for them to provide you with a rental vehicle by state law.

A) Dingman’s is happy to assist you in reserving a rental vehicle. We have rental facilities on site, so there is no need to make a second trip. Simply pick up your rental when you drop off your vehicle for collision repairs, and return it when repairs are completed.

A) Your deductible is paid directly to Dingman’s Collision Center; it is due upon the completion of your auto body repairs.

A) We have a nationwide written warranty on our auto body repairs. It is a lifetime warranty on paint and workmanship and manufacturer warranty on all parts.

    TESTIMONIALS

    I have already recommended to two friends and had my positive experience verified
    by one other Dingman’s customer. They exceeded my expectations on estimate
    process, communication, cost, speed of Tesla Approved Collision Repair and communication/management with
    insurance company. Just moved to Omaha and knew there were no Tesla Service Centers locally.
    Stressed having to get work done, but experience turned out exceptionally positive! I
    have less anxiety owning a Tesla in Omaha having met Andy and Dingman’s!

    MIKE T. - OMAHA

    They went above and beyond with my auto repair, the communication via cell and in
    person was both outstanding. A very personal and caring and dedicated to customer
    satisfaction. I have had my other cars repaired by other companies in our community. I
    have 5 cars. I am now a Dingman customer for life, here locally and 3 other Dingman
    locations. Having new parts is what I wanted. The staff were outstanding. Thank You
    all at Dingman’s. You are the auto repairs best in service in Omaha.

    PATRICIA H. - OMAHA

    I had heard about the “Dingman Difference” on the radio but hadn’t experienced it first-hand until my recent car accident. It’s hard to put into words how extremely satisfied I am about the tremendous job your company did repairing my damaged Mercedes and returning it to me in even better shape than I could have imagined. Your personal advice and professional expertise, while not unexpected, was very much appreciated. You and your staff certainly exemplified the integrity, honesty and customer service that your company has long been known and recognized for.
