After a wreck, start with a written estimate. Call (469) 501-5115 to tell us what happened, whether the vehicle is drivable and which insurance company is handling the claim. Before any repair begins, you get a written estimate of the work.

We also repair collision damage under the hood. If the impact damaged the radiator, suspension or engine, the vehicle does not have to go to a second shop afterward.

Minor to Major Collision Repair
Whether you have a small dent or your vehicle is almost totaled or has frame damage, our ASE Certified auto technicians can get you back on the road again. Accelerate Auto Repair has all the equipment needed to professionally complete the body work needed, including putting a fresh coat of paint on your vehicle when we’re finished with body and engine repairs.
We offer:
- Paintless dent repair for parking lot dings.
- Dent repair and panel painting.
- Frame straightening and / or repair.
- Complete paint jobs.
- Replacing fenders, doors, windows, bumpers and quarter panels.
- Custom body work.
- ADAS calibration and wheel alignment after repairs; most late-model vehicles need their safety systems recalibrated before they can be trusted again.
Engine Repair
Not only can we repair the body, but we can diagnose collision damage to the engine and related systems. Contact the shop at (469) 501-5115 to discuss the damage and request a written estimate.
In some cases, the accident may have caused engine or transmission damage. We can repair the engine and replace components such as the radiator, condenser, transmission coolers, oil coolers, oil pans, and anything else that might have been damaged or destroyed in the accident.
We’ll make sure the engine and transmission are working properly before we give you a quote for the insurance company. If they aren’t we’ll include that in the quote as long as the damage was caused by the accident.

Collision repair questions, answered
Can I choose my own body shop, or does my insurance company pick?
Your insurance company may recommend a repair facility. If you want Accelerate to inspect the vehicle, call (469) 501-5115 and tell us which company is handling the claim. We are a State Farm Select Service shop. We will prepare a written estimate before repair begins.
What does the lifetime warranty actually cover?
The complete collision-warranty terms are published directly below this question set. Read the full scope, duration, transfer and invoice requirements, job applicability, later-repair condition, rust and corrosion exclusion, and claim process together.
Does the warranty transfer if I sell the car?
The warranty follows the vehicle, subject to the complete terms directly below. The owner needs the original invoice showing Accelerate performed the repair.
Do you fix mechanical damage from the wreck too?
Yes. Engine, transmission and cooling work happens here, in house. If the impact took out the radiator, the suspension or the engine, you are not towing the car to a second shop after the bodywork is finished.
My car is not drivable. What do I do?
Call us at (469) 501-5115 before you arrange the tow so we know it is coming. We are at 3002 Century Dr in Rowlett, off Lakeview Parkway and a few minutes from the President George Bush Turnpike. If you need to make a warranty claim later, call the same number and be ready to text or email photos of the area in question.
Lifetime Warranty — Collision Repair
Read the full warranty terms on their own page.
What we warranty. The collision work we perform — bodywork, parts, and paint — covering both the parts we install and our labor.
How long. For the life of the vehicle. Not a set number of years or miles.
Who it covers. The vehicle, not the buyer. If you sell the car, the warranty goes with it. Whoever owns the vehicle needs the original invoice showing we performed the repair.
Which jobs it applies to. Every collision repair we do — insurance, self-pay, or through a direct-repair program. No separate tier, no separate cost.
What ends it. If a panel we repaired is damaged again and that later repair is performed anywhere other than our facility, this warranty no longer applies to that panel.
Rust and corrosion. Lifetime warranty strictly excludes any claims related to rust or corrosion. Coverage does not apply to surface rust, rust perforation, or corrosion resulting from pre-existing conditions, aging underlying metal, rock chips, road salt, or exposure to inclement weather and harsh environmental conditions.
Making a claim. Please call (469) 501-5115 to discuss the claim. Please be prepared to text or email pictures of the area(s) in question so your claim can be processed as quickly as possible.
