The entire core support may need replacement . Need to have body shop look at. Have comprehensive insurance?

Insurance wants to total it out. And the body shop wont give me any straight info they just want to replace every little thing for the insurance $ so I didnt really trust what they said. Thanks for the answer though

Average retail value $4700.00 can't see repair costing that much. May need to contact someone higher up in company. also could get your own estimate from an ICAR CERt. shop
