Auto Body Shops In Aston, PA

This article on the best auto body shops in Aston, Pennsylvania is brought to you by the Aston personal injury attorneys at Justice Guardians.

The invention of the car is a fairly recent one when speaking in historical terms. In fact, oddly enough, two German men in two different cities filed patents for what would eventually be called an automobile on the very same day, January 29th, 1886. The first man, Karl Benz, had created a three-wheeled vehicle that used an internal combustion engine. The second man, Gottlieb Daimler, combined a four-wheeled carriage and an internal combustion engine.

Since these early creations, cars have only become larger, faster, and more powerful. While this can be considered a good thing, since vehicles allow the movement of both people and goods, this combination can also be dangerous. No one knows this better than a car accident victim.

The First Car Accident

The first known car accident on record occurred in Ohio City, Ohio. Two men were inside the car, which was owned and being driven by James William Lambert. At one point in their journey, one of the tires hit a tree root, causing the car to become unstable. Lambert lost control and the vehicle crashed into a hitching post. Thankfully those involved were not seriously injured.

Mass production soon allowed mechanics to build new cars faster and provided parts to replace damaged components after an accident. Today, thousands of collision repair shops exist to serve those whose car has been involved in a crash.

What Questions Should A Car Owner Ask A Mechanic?

It's important to ask questions before trusting any auto body shop to do work on a vehicle. Questions may include:

1. What credentials do you have?
2. What makes and models of cars do you have experience working on?
3. Can you provide me with an estimate?
4. Are you going to use aftermarket or original equipment manufacturer parts?
5.  Is there a warranty on the replacement parts and work being performed?
6. Do you have insurance to cover the car while it is in the shop?

Finding a good auto body repair shop can be difficult. Be sure to check online reviews before visiting a shop.
