Many insurance companies also write the same policies that are used for ``extended warranties''. Contact your All State agent if you'd like more details (I am pretty sure that All State still does this, I don't think State Farm does, but I may be wrong). Also, many repairs that are the result of collisions can also be caused by other mechanical failures. This isn't news to most people - the reason that is most commonly given is that the parts are more expensive since they must be imported. -- John F.
