How to Deal with Dents Caused by Hail on a Car?
1 Answers
Hail damage to a car is best repaired through paintless dent repair (PDR). PDR has the following characteristics: it does not require traditional "bodywork, putty, or painting," thus preserving the original car paint; the repair time is short, and the cost is very low. The repair effect is excellent, fully protecting the original car. Hail damage falls under the coverage of the comprehensive insurance policy provided by insurance companies. If you find your car damaged by hail, you can call their hotline to report the incident and file a claim with the insurance company. Methods for claiming insurance for hail damage to a car: 1. Report the incident to the insurance company. If all the required documents are complete, you can report the incident to the insurance company, which must be done within 24 hours. When reporting, you need to provide detailed information, such as the vehicle's parking location, the person responsible for parking, and the weather conditions. 2. After reporting, undergo inspection and damage assessment. After reporting, the insurance company will arrange for a staff member to contact you and conduct an inspection nearby. During the inspection, the staff will take photos of the vehicle's damage. 3. Required documents. During the inspection process, you need to provide the staff with the owner's ID card, the vehicle registration certificate, the original and copy of the driver's license, and the owner's bank card. Please ensure all these documents are valid.
