Accent Collision provides deer and animal collision repair for drivers across Los Angeles and the San Fernando Valley from our shop at 7300 Deering Avenue in Canoga Park. We’ve been repairing deer or animal collision damage since 1994 with OEM parts, factory-specification refinishing, and a lifetime workmanship warranty.
What deer or animal collision damage typically involves
A typical deer or animal collision involves front-end damage including bumper, grille, headlights, hood, fenders, and often the radiator and air conditioning condenser — sometimes with additional damage to airbags, ADAS sensors, and the front frame. What’s visible from the outside is often only part of the story — teardown frequently reveals additional damage that requires a supplement to the original insurance estimate.
Our deer or animal collision repair process
Every deer or animal collision repair starts with a complete pre-repair diagnostic scan and photographic documentation. Then we proceed with front frame straightening if needed, radiator and AC condenser replacement, headlight and grille assembly replacement with OEM parts, ADAS sensor recalibration (forward radar, lidar, cameras), and direct claim handling with your comprehensive coverage carrier. We provide a written estimate up front, document every additional finding with photos and OEM repair procedure citations, and negotiate any supplement directly with your insurance carrier.

A note on repair timelines
We provide an honest timeline at the start of every job and update you with progress along the way, but we will not promise an exact completion date. Repair timing depends on parts availability, the complexity of damage uncovered during teardown, and the time your insurance carrier takes to respond to supplement requests.
