I am a car accident involved 5 cars. My Honda Hybrid is the 3rd card with sandwiched impact. I was nervoused and sign up a third party workshop who stopped by the accident scene. Found out that they are just a third party workshop, not from the authorised Honda workshop. It is a must to send to Honda authorised workshop? Is the hybrid technology is able to perform by normal car workshop?

It really matters what happened to your vehicle. Personally, I would recommend taking it to a certified shop for two reasons. First, the car is only a few years old and has many years to go. Therefore, you want the work done correctly. Next, it is a hybrid. Most smaller shops are not trained to work on them.
