In car accident cases there are two separate types of damages, property and personal. One does not affect the other so if you accept money from the other driver's insurance company to pay for your car repair it has no effect on your personal injury claim. Insurance companies generally want to settle cases quickly, so you should get your car repair check quickly. If not, you can have your own car insurance pay for your repairs and they will go after the other driver's insurer. Your own insurer might deny paying for the repair for you at first, but if you hassle them enough they normally give in.
