Default Bubbling paint after car accident

Hey guys I am starting to notice bubbling paint on my ride about 3 months after getting it back from the body shop that fixed it after my accident. What should I do, should I call my insurance company or call the body shop and have them fix it again.

Oh by the way dont ever let anybody else drive your cars. They can end up wrecked and you can end up having to find rides to work for 2 1/2 months. NOT FUN.

call the body shop and have them fix it again. if the shop is any good, they gave you a lifetime warranty on the work they performed

BBB is useless, they are just money grabbers.

Yeah the body shop should stand by their work, especially because its only been three months since it was painted. If all else fails, I've heard of people complaining to the Bureau of Automotive Repair and filing for an investigation, but that might be overboard at this point lol

You should also call you insurance company since they paid for the work. They carry a very big stick
