There are 2 common car-related issues that most people don’t tend to claim for from their car insurance policies. Curious? Well, it seems that a lot of people who have car insurance are less inclined to claim for busted tyres and minor dents and scratches on their cars’ exteriors.
There are a couple of reasons why, but it’s typically because they don’t have the type of car insurance that’ll cover this kind of damage. It’s also commonly because the excess that they have to pay (standard with every car insurance-related claim) is a higher amount than the cost of the damage, or it’s more or less the same… It makes sense that a lot of people will just leave the damage if they can or pay to fix it up out of their own pockets.
Well, thankfully there’s now a new solution on the block and it couldn’t have come at a better time. Because the honest truth is that potholes, flying pebbles, burst tyres, and door dents happen when you least expect it. And, of course, when your budget is earmarked for other things, like a festive holiday.
Take a look at this recently introduced, affordable way for you to get cover for these pesky and frequently expensive repairs and replacements to your tyres and car’s exterior.
Tyre and rim insurance + scratch and dent insurance
It’s the combo you didn’t know you needed, which you can view for yourself here… But you can also just stick around and get an easy snapshot into what it is and does here.
What it is
Simply, this kind of insurance takes the tyre and rim insurance product that many insurers offer and fleshes it out with cover for scratches and dents. Instead of getting a bunch of different policies, you can get it all wrapped up as 1 and get extra cover at a better price.
Ultimately, you can pay a lower monthly fee to cover the cost of sorting out minor repairs to the exterior of your car, like those mysterious little dings that happen in parking lots, as well as the cost of repairs and replacements for your tyres and rims.
Here’s what you get
- Small chips, minor dents (smaller than 15cm in diameter), minor scratches (smaller than 15cm in length), tar removals, hail damage, and repairs to mags and rims.
- Repairs or replacements for damaged tyres.
- Repairs for damaged rims (road and mag wheels).
Listen, before you head out into the silly season, consider getting the best of both worlds. After all, it’s way cheaper to get an affordable policy to cough up for those bigger costs than having to take the cash out of your holiday budget or your stash to survive January.
