UNDERSTANDING YOUR OPTIONS

Certified vs. non-certified repairs

Compare the shop’s credentials and the proposed work for your vehicle. Certification is specific to a manufacturer’s program; it does not mean every model or repair is automatically covered.

Non-certified repair facilities

  • Equipment & training

    A shop outside the manufacturer’s program may have different training or equipment. Ask what is available for the work your vehicle needs.

  • Parts selection

    Confirm the estimate’s replacement-part choices and any alternatives before authorizing the work.

  • Technical information

    Ask whether the shop can obtain the current repair instructions for your exact model and year.

  • Safety-related checks

    Request an explanation of the measurements, diagnostics and calibrations included in the repair plan.

  • Repair history & warranty

    Compare written repair warranty terms and the records provided at completion, rather than relying on general assurances.

Manufacturer-certified repair approach

  • Equipment & training

    Manufacturer programs set training and tooling requirements for the repairs covered by that program.

  • Parts selection

    Vehicle-specific procedures help establish component requirements. Our team can explain the proposed parts and sourcing.

  • Technical information

    Current model-specific instructions guide repair limits, materials and joining methods.

  • Safety-related checks

    The proposed work identifies relevant inspections and system checks based on the damage and manufacturer procedures.

  • Repair history & warranty

    Keep the estimate and completed-work records. Ask our team to explain the warranty terms that apply to your repair.

Our team can explain the certification and repair capability relevant to your vehicle. Certification alone does not guarantee a completion date, vehicle warranty coverage or resale value.

Troubleshooting Guide

My bumper looks only scuffed after an impact. Could there be hidden damage?
A bumper cover can conceal damaged attachments or components behind it. The outside appearance alone does not establish the extent of an impact. Tell Anthony's Auto Craft where the car was struck and report any new noise, warning or change in how it drives.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
Why is the airbag warning on after a collision?
A warning can indicate a fault affecting the restraint system, even if an airbag did not deploy. Do not erase it or assume the restraints will work normally. Arrange qualified assessment and tell Anthony's Auto Craft the exact warning before planning vehicle delivery.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
What should I do if my bumper or underbody trim is hanging loose?
Loose parts can detach or contact a tire or the road. Stop somewhere safe and do not reach beneath the vehicle in traffic. Describe the loose area to Anthony's Auto Craft and arrange assistance if the vehicle cannot be moved safely.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
There is a new leak after the collision. Is it safe to drive?
The source and severity cannot be established from fluid color alone. Do not continue driving with a substantial leak, fuel smell, smoke or a critical warning. Keep clear of leaking fluids and contact appropriate assistance; advise Anthony's Auto Craft of the leak before delivery.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
Why are parking-sensor or driver-assistance warnings appearing after impact?
Damage or displacement near a sensor or camera can affect its operation, but testing is needed to establish the cause. Do not rely on an affected assistance feature. Give Anthony's Auto Craft the exact warning and impact location so any required inspection or calibration can be considered.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
My door will not latch properly after an accident. What should I do?
Do not drive with a door that cannot close and latch securely. A displaced panel, hinge or latch area may be involved, but the cause needs inspection. Avoid slamming it repeatedly and discuss safe transport with Anthony's Auto Craft.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
Why are the gaps around my hood or trunk uneven after impact?
Changed gaps can indicate displaced panels or damage to supporting areas. Adjusting the visible panel without assessment can miss underlying problems. Show Anthony's Auto Craft where the fit changed, and do not drive if the hood cannot latch securely.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
Why is there new wind noise after body damage?
A change in panel fit, a disturbed seal or trim damage can allow air through. Note which area the sound comes from without trying to investigate while driving. Those details help Anthony's Auto Craft assess the affected body and sealing surfaces.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
Why is rainwater entering around a door or trunk after a collision?
A displaced seal, damaged seam or changed panel fit can allow water into the vehicle. Record where it appears and protect belongings without blocking drains or sealing over the area. Arrange an assessment with Anthony's Auto Craft rather than assuming the seal alone is responsible.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
My door or trunk rubs another panel when opening. Should I keep using it?
Repeated movement can damage the finish or worsen a fit problem. Do not force a panel that binds or catches. Tell Anthony's Auto Craft where the contact occurs so the panel, attachments and surrounding structure can be assessed.Learn More About Luxury Collision RepairLearn More About Mercedes Body RepairLearn More About Maserati Body Repair
