What does "certified" mean for an auto body shop?

Usually one of two things: the shop's technicians keep up ongoing industry training, or a carmaker has approved the shop to repair its vehicles. Ask which one, and check it yourself.

How do fall leaves affect my roof, gutters and foundation?

Leaves clog gutters and hold moisture on the roof. In North Texas, overflowing gutters can also dump water against your foundation, where expansive clay soil swells and shrinks. A fall cleanout helps protect both.

Do the sensors on my car need to be recalibrated after a repair?

Often, yes. Cameras and radar behind the windshield and in the bumpers can be thrown off by a wreck or a repair. If your car has driver-assist features, ask whether calibration is part of the repair.

Can any body shop repair an electric vehicle?

Not always. EVs carry high-voltage batteries that have to be handled safely, and repairs should follow the carmaker's procedures. Ask a shop about its EV experience before you drop off the car.
