The Missed Calls That Cost You Customers
Insurance Adjusters Delay Repair Coordination Due to Unanswered Calls
When insurance adjusters call during critical windows—such as after a pre-claim estimate or during structural damage assessment—unanswered calls delay claim approvals by 2–5 days. This slows down the entire body shop repair timeline, especially when dealing with complex cases involving frame pulling or paint contamination. With 85% of leads lost due to missed calls, your shop risks losing high-value claims that require precise coordination between adjusters, repair teams, and policyholders.
Staff Overwhelmed During Peak Accident Seasons: Repair Delays Begin at the Phone
During winter months or high-traffic periods like holiday weekends, your team is inundated with calls about dent repair, paint matching, and rental car arrangements. With an average response time of 45 minutes, customers often hang up after the third ring—especially when they’re anxious about their vehicle’s post-accident status. This leads to 60% of potential customers choosing a competitor, even if your shop has the capacity to handle the work.
No Dedicated Line for Customer Inquiries Disrupts Repair Workflow
Calls about paint contamination issues, priming body parts, or post-repair inspection scheduling are routed to mechanics or managers mid-repair. This breaks concentration during precision tasks like paint matching or structural damage assessment. With only 30% of auto body shops using a dedicated phone system, your team is forced to juggle customer service with hands-on repairs—increasing error risk and reducing throughput.

Book More Repairs, Faster
A shop in Detroit reported a 41% increase in booked repairs within 3 weeks of implementing an AI answering service. Customers calling after hours for dent repair or frame pulling now receive immediate confirmation, with the AI scheduling appointments and sending automated reminders.

Save $3,000/Month on Staffing
A 12-person body shop in Houston replaced two part-time front desk staff with an AI answering service handling 120+ calls per day. They saved $3,100/month in payroll and benefits. During a 3-day surge after a major storm, the AI managed 217 calls without downtime—scheduling 18 pre-claim estimates, 9 rental car arrangements, and 14 structural damage assessments—all while the team focused on priming body parts and paint matching.
Never Miss an Insurance Claim
An AI agent now handles insurance claim coordination for a shop in Phoenix, automatically collecting policy numbers, accident details, and adjuster contact info. It schedules structural damage assessments and sends reminders for post-repair inspections. In one case, the AI flagged a recurring paint contamination issue from a previous repair, prompting the technician to re-evaluate the prep process—preventing a costly rework. This proactive handling has reduced claim disputes by 37%.
Real Results from Real Businesses
“We were losing 27% of leads after 6 PM—especially for frame pulling jobs that needed urgent adjuster coordination. Now, Answrr answers every call, books appointments for dent repair and paint matching, and even reminds customers about their post-repair inspection. Last month, we booked three high-value structural repairs that would’ve been lost otherwise. It’s like having a full-time front desk that never sleeps.”
Linda Chen
Owner & Lead Technician, Summit Auto Body & Frame Repair, Collision Repair / Auto Body Shops
“Our adjusters were calling 15 times a week just to confirm if we’d received their pre-claim estimate. Now, Answrr captures the details, sends them to our CRM, and schedules the structural damage assessment automatically. We’ve reduced claim onboarding time from 48 hours to under 12. In the past quarter, we’ve completed 22% more repairs than last year—without hiring more staff.”
Derek Turner
Shop Manager, Precision Collision & Paint Solutions, Collision Repair / Auto Body Shops
“I was skeptical—how could AI understand paint contamination or priming body parts? But after a few weeks, I realized it wasn’t just answering calls. It remembered past repairs, flagged recurring issues, and even reminded me to recheck the primer on a 2019 Ford F-150 that had a history of paint adhesion problems. It’s like having a digital assistant who knows our shop’s workflow inside out.”
