Woman displeased with body shop repairs.

The body shop repaired my car’s damage, but the paint doesn’t match and there’s a noticeable gap between panels. Can I demand a redo?

The good news is that with most leasing companies, whether you’ll be charged depends on how deep the damage goes and whether it crosses the line into “excessive” territory.
