Allstate adjusters direct auto body shops to install incorrect or defective parts, then hang up and refuse payment when shops flag the error. Shops face financial retaliation if they deviate from adjuster-approved (often substandard) parts lists. This structural conflict of interest harms both shop owners and policyholders seeking quality repairs.
