I'm willing to bet that the body shop is either not run well or there's something back ordered. But in order for the first assumption to be wrong they would have to make sure you and them are on the same page and you are fully aware of whats going on and why its taking that long. That amount of time is extremely irrational to have your car at a shop for an accident like yours. I'd demand a rental car sooner than later as you deserve it. Your insurance should cover a rental anyway, if it doesn't look to see about adding rental coverage as it would cost a a very small amount to add to your policy and covers you in times like this. What if you didn't have your moms car to take ? Than what ?

depends who's name is on the car.... if he's under 21, no rental

That is true, but in that case I wonder if the mother has a rental car as she would be able to get the rental car.

These things just happen, it stinks but 3 months seems a bit excessive.

did they fix the axles?? i'm sure the frame was damaged and that takes time to fix.....maybe not 3 months... but still

yikes! that's ugly....

Jeez !!! And to think I complained about a $3,000 repair (my 17-year-old son) on our Nissan PU taking 14 days to complete.

Man, that sucks !!

Yah, I would make a visit too.

It's a new car so a lot of parts will be on backorder. I don't recall but I had to wait a while for the hood seals and another big piece. Either way, i'd go check everything else out. Body shops tend to always screw something up or the paint always has some imperfection because they think everyone is an old man who won't notice. Save some time, that way if there are any problems they fix them while you wait for the airbags to arrive.

Yeah it is, but apparently not unusual....Took that long for them to source a frame rail bracket for my repair. I drove around with a damaged/dented car for months. Sucked.

yea guys, thanks for the advice i did make a visit they told me the same thing.. now they have my car in a toyota body shop.. not in the nissan..so i have to drive to a diff location. additionally my dad has complained but we just get the same response. "any day now either tomorrow or in a week" that was two weeks ago. i know is not their fault because nissan should be the ones who should have the parts in stock but still. is just frustrasting.

additionally, when they put my car for the first alingnment test it failed it =/ so they had to order more suspension parts. that was like a 6 weeks ago..i dont know what the hell they are doing with the car ima see if i can go see it today. i hope they fixed it right.

yes is very irrational. the insurance does cover it im just gona get the money for the rental car that im not using.

damn, i didnt know you could do that! i coulda pocketed an extra $900. i used up my rental even though i didnt really need to get around.

Be thankful. They're probably saving you and your family from wrapping it around a tree. 3 months of your family being safe. Priceless
