First off... State Farm is AWFUL, and because of their shitty business operating procedures, it took two months to repair something that literally only took five days of labor.
BUT, Certified did a brilliant job went to bat for me with State Farm, and also warned me ahead of time that it might take a while. They were on top of things from the very beginning, and in the end got me a brand-new parts for my beautiful car.
Many thanks to the manager Speedy, he's a true pro!
Thanks Guys!
