Update:

After a call and an email yesterday, this appeared in my online account, "Mr. Spiny-Norman, I have set the payment by check up which should be getting sent out today."

Which ended nine+ days of wondering. It does seem that it is being repaired, but the shop is closed. I will get the repairs list ASAP and post it here.

Very excited to have the car back! Well, minus the deductible.

Stay tuned...
