Tell the insurance adjuster you are not in a hurry to settle the claim, ask them to keep the claim open for at least 30 days so everyone involved will know if more problems show up,the car needs to be driven a while to know for sure that all is repaired,
I have done this before with my insurance co. without any argument.
good luck.

Kim,
No worries, I am a little sensitive when it comes to insurance companies, had to get a lawyer and take one on in the past. They finally settled over a year later and paid a significant amount extra so we did not countersue. It's not paranoia when they really are out to get you. I am just concerned about unseen internal damage showing up at a later time. I will probably just sell the car so I don't fret about it, its a shame it's a nice commuter car and I had planned on keeping it a couple more years. Still haven't had a meet with the adjuster and dealer yet.
