When you are faced with an accident with your vehicle, the experience can be stressful and challenging. However, having the right coverages in your insurance policy can make a big difference in how get through this unfortunate event.
In this article, we explore three key coverages that we recommend including in your auto policy with Mexican license plates (in addition to basic coverage such as Comprehensive Property Damage, Theft, Damage to Third Parties, Passenger Injuries, Roadside Assistance, and Legal Assistance). They are: Zero Deductible, Substitute or Rental Car, and Agency Repairs.
Zero Deductible Partial Loss for Property Damage
One of the biggest concerns when facing a claim is the deductible the insured needs to absorb. With Zero Deductible coverage for Partial Property Damage Losses, this concern is eliminated. This means that, in the event of partial damage to the vehicle, you will not have to pay any deductible, which makes it considerably easier to repair your car without significant additional expenses.
This coverage applies in several situations, including collisions where you are the only one affected, accidents with third parties under certain conditions, and damage caused by foreign objects, and hit-and-run third parties. It is important to report the claim immediately and wait for the adjuster's evaluation to ensure that coverage is applied correctly.
Zero Total Theft Deductible
Another stressful scenario is facing the total theft of your vehicle. With Total Theft Zero Deductible coverage, you're fully covered if your car is stolen, and you've filed a report with the authorities. This warranty provides financial peace of mind at critical times, ensuring that you can replace your vehicle without additional deductible costs.
Substitute or Rental Car
When your vehicle requires repairs that will take more than 72 hours, or in cases of total loss due to property damage or total theft, having a Replacement or Rental Car can make a big difference in your daily mobility. This coverage allows you to get a replacement vehicle provided by the insurer, making it easier for you to go about your daily life while your car is being repaired or replaced.
To activate this coverage, simply submit the theft report or documentation indicating the need for a lengthy repair at a shop.
Agency Repair
The quality of your vehicle's repairs is crucial to maintaining its long-term value and performance. With Agency Repair coverage, your car will be repaired at an authorized service center of the brand, guaranteeing the use of original parts and the specialized knowledge of the manufacturer. This option is available for vehicles with a maximum age of 10 years, ensuring that even older models receive the best possible service.
In summary, although these coverages may slightly increase the annual cost of your insurance policy, the benefits they offer are significant. From waiving the deductible in critical cases to ensuring your mobility and the quality of repairs, these options are designed to enhance your experience during difficult times. Consider adding these coverages to your auto policy with Mexican license plates to enjoy greater peace of mind and safety on the road.
