How can I ensure that repairs are made with genuine ford parts?

Answer:

Before you take out insurance, you should read the policy and know what you are purchasing. Ask your insurance representative about parts and other restrictions prior to purchase. That way you will pay for the protection you want at the price you’re willing to pay.

I’ve heard about insurance companies having their own direct bodyshops. Is that a good thing?

Answer:

If your insurer directs you to one of its direct repair facilities this may be a good choice, but you should check it out prior to taking your vehicle there for repairs. If you are not comfortable with your insurance company’s recommendation, you still have the right to go to another body shop of your choice.
