Alaska insurer-selected repair facility guarantee

If an insurer chose your Alaska repair facility, is the repair guarantee handled correctly?

Alaska Division of Insurance guidance states that when a person adjusting or settling a claim chooses a specific contractor or repair facility, that person must guarantee the repairs, restore the damaged motor vehicle or property to its pre-loss condition at no additional cost to the claimant, and cause the repairs to be completed within a reasonable time.

Quick check

Document the insurer-selected repair arrangement and make sure the claim process supports restoring the vehicle to pre-loss condition at no extra cost to the claimant within a reasonable time.
