I believe that Insurance Companies hire adjusters to get the LOWEST repair
cost on a damaged vehicle.  AFAIK, this is still the practice?

Case in point; "low life" breaks into my Mercedes Benz, screwdrivers open
the locked glove box to steal contents among other things. Car dash looks
like hell and adjuster wants me to visit a vinyl repair shop for a patchup
repair. Adjuster takes an attitude when I objected.

I told him to leave, phoned the Insurance Company for another adjuster who
arrived days later. He gave me a satisfactory repair estimate.

Now, don't get me started on body repair shops.
