Does Vehicle Damage Cover Glass Breakage Alone?
1 Answers
Yes. The separate glass breakage insurance is an additional auto insurance coverage. It refers to situations where only the windshield and window glass (excluding headlights and mirror glass) of the insured vehicle are damaged, for which the insurance company is responsible for compensation. The specific details are as follows: 1. Coverage Scope: This insurance is an add-on to the vehicle damage insurance, and only vehicles already covered by vehicle damage insurance can purchase this additional coverage. 2. Insurance Liability: During the insurance period, if the insured vehicle's windshield or window glass is solely broken during use, the insurer will compensate for the actual loss. The policyholder can voluntarily choose to insure based on either imported or domestic glass after consultation with the insurer, and the insurer will bear the corresponding insurance liability according to the chosen option. 3. Liability Exclusions: The insurer is not responsible for compensating for the following damages to the insured vehicle: breakage of headlights and mirror glass, or glass breakage occurring during the installation or repair of the vehicle. 4. Coverage Determination: Insurance companies usually compensate for glass breakage based on the actual loss. There is no need to determine the insurance amount when purchasing the insurance, but it is necessary to specify whether the coverage is for domestic or imported glass to determine the compensation basis during the claims process.
