Anyone have any experience locally with an autobody shop in Puget Sound? Someone hit me the other day and it's certainly repairable, but it crossed my mind that there probably aren't many with experience working on them. Service center recommended Accurate Auto Body in Redmond. Anyone else that you all are aware of? Thanks for the help!

You pretty much have to use a Rivian shop if parts are required as they will only sell replacement parts to the authorized body shops as I understand it.

Thanks, I was assuming/fearing the same. Will update how it goes so that anyone local has a heads up. Looks like it's Accurate Auto Body or bust.

I'm south of Dallas about 20 minutes, and for the whole Dallas Fort Worth metroplex which is bigger than Rhode Island, they only found 2 shops to give us to use, and I picked one with a ton of great reviews as I also need a body shop as some lady hit me, visually minor damage, they already told me expect $7k......if this was a normal car probably $1000 pop the dent, spot paint / clear and replace the fender trim / bumper, but that's fine it's her insurance paying they will be painting 1/3 of the truck they said and replacing parts that are not damaged because they have to be removed to fully paint the body, and when you remove them their clips break, they are 1 time use, which drives the cost up.......and she hit the rear quarter panel on the bed, since that panel goes all they way up and along the roof line, they will paint the entire panel they stated, not just the spot and feather it.

They replaced my hood. Not bad work, but there was an issue with some drip on the hood. They fixed it later. Also, they do a TON of Rivians, so they know what they're doing.
