Yes — you book an appointment yourself here. It’s completely free and non-binding: Book an online damage assessment.
For minor damage, you can also submit a photo-based assessment. Make sure to take clear photos in good lighting and include multiple photos per damage area. In some cases we may ask you to come in so we can inspect the damage in person if it’s difficult to assess from the pictures.
Yes. It doesn’t matter which insurance company you use — AutoIn Bilskade performs vehicle damage repairs for customers from all insurance providers. To receive compensation, your insurer needs a filed claim. If the claim hasn’t been filed yet, we can help you with that when you bring your car in for a damage assessment.
Once the case is in order, we simply need to know where your car is insured and the claim number. After the assessment, we send the required documentation and cost estimate to your insurance company.
We provide a full warranty on our work. If you discover something after delivery that wasn’t identified at handover, contact the branch where the work was performed, and we’ll handle any complaint/rectification together with you.
You can also contact our customer service on 02030 during our phone hours (07–18).
Note: We do not provide a warranty on paintwork related to rust repairs. This is standard practice in the industry because rust can return later regardless of treatment.
Repair time depends on the extent of the damage and the availability of spare parts. We’ll give you an estimate after we’ve completed a damage assessment.
During the repair, we may discover the need for additional parts or more extensive painting to avoid color differences. In many cases, this can extend the repair time.
We always aim to complete repairs as quickly as possible and will notify you as soon as the car is ready.
Full Tesla repairs (including structural and aluminium work) are performed at our four Tesla-certified locations: Bjørnerud (Oslo), Sarpsborg, Bergen (Åsane) and Star Motor Sandvika (Bærum).

Yes. Our four Tesla-certified locations (Bjørnerud, Sarpsborg, Bergen and Star Motor Sandvika) have Tesla-approved equipment and trained staff for aluminium welding and structural repairs. All structural work is performed to Tesla's technical specifications so the factory warranty is preserved.

Had the company car repaired at Star Motor AS and was super happy! Friendly, very service-minded staff; the body damage was fixed and the result exceeded all expectations! The car was washed both inside and out! (I have never experienced such good service anywhere before...)
I got damage to my car and called various workshops that all had long waiting times. I contacted Star, and they took the car in right away. The rental car was ready, and within 10 days I had my car back. Fast, efficient and skilled!
