Write a letter to a body shop whose repair is taking much longer than the date I was given. What I will tell you: shop [SHOP_NAME], job number [JOB_NUMBER], drop-off date and promised date [DATES_PROMISED], reasons given [REASONS_GIVEN], insurer involved [INSURER_DETAILS], costs from lack of a car [HIRE_COSTS]. The letter should show each new date given and missed, ask for a completion date, and ask the shop to explain whether the delay is from parts, insurer approval or workload. Documents that usually matter: Estimate and authorisation, messages with dates, parts order confirmation if shared, and hire or taxi receipts. Realistic outcomes to ask for: A firm date, extra hire days paid by the shop or insurer, a discount, or collection of the car for another shop. Expect a response like: Shops often cite insurer approvals or parts; reply by asking for the exact item outstanding and who is waiting on whom. First build a timeline table for the body shop repair taking far longer than quoted (date, what happened, proof), flag the gaps, and then write the letter so it follows the timeline. Return the letter itself plus a short cover note, around 50 words, followed by the steps to take for silence or refusal (ask the manager, then the insurer's claims handler, then the consumer agency), and a list of exhibits (estimate, messages, parts confirmation, receipts). Email it as a PDF and paste the text into the message, and archive a screenshot of the sent folder showing date and time and follow up if no confirmation arrives. Stay calm, plain and courteous, without exaggeration, put the date from [DEADLINE] on any request, and be honest about limits. Write this as me, an ordinary person, claiming no legal credentials. Quote no statute or time limit from memory; use [JURISDICTION] and [RELEVANT_LAW_OR_POLICY_IF_KNOWN] as given, and remind me to check the law with a qualified adviser. None of this is legal advice.
