Direct Repair

What is Direct Repair?

Save time after a collision by going to an accredited Direct Repair shop to get an approved Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI) Claim estimate.

What Does “Accredited Repair Shop” Mean?

An MPI-accredited repair shop is a collision centre that meets strict standards for completing safe and proper repairs. These standards are set by Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI).

Fast Forward Your Claim

Now, after a vehicle collision, eligible claims can be estimated and processed directly through a Manitoba Public Insurance (MPI)-accredited collision repair shop. This saves you time and the hassle of towing your car to two different locations.

Repairing Newer Vehicles

Many newer vehicles are made with materials and technologies that improve safety and fuel efficiency. Repairing these may require specialized training, equipment and methods available only from an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) or certified facility. CARSTAR is certified to do many such repairs. Once we know your vehicle’s make, model and year, we can properly assess your repair requirements.
