Is it possible that in your anger, you blamed the shop for bad work or worse, causing the problem?

If that is the case, your FIRST step should be to go and apologize for flying off the handle. (Here's hoping you weren't a total jerk.)

Try the "honey" approach, rather than the vinegar one. Maybe it will work.

Not that I have EVER been unreasonably self-righteous. BUT, if I ever had been this approach seems like a good one. ESPECIALLY, if the shop I am working with is THE shop I have to deal with to get my baby back on the road. Sometimes humility sux.

"and appropriately get the at fault driver's insurance to pay for the additional repairs". Yeah good luck with that one

You gotta love life though. One little bump costs you thousands of dollars and days or possibly weeks of headaches. You just have to take it all in stride, laugh about it, and try not to rip someone's head off.
