What to Do When Your Car Is Lost and Cannot Be Found?
1 Answers
After your vehicle is lost, you should take the following steps: Report to the Police: File a report with the public security department within 24 hours (excluding major accidents such as natural disasters), and obtain a document from the public security department stating that the vehicle has been lost. Then, take this document to the vehicle management office to cancel the license plate. This way, if the vehicle with this license plate is seized by traffic police, there will be a lead. Report to the Insurance Company: File a report with the insurance company within 48 hours. If you exceed 48 hours, the insurance company may refuse to compensate, except in cases of natural disasters. Car Theft Claim Process: Complete the Procedures: Bring the insurance policy, vehicle registration, and driver's license to the insurance company's claims department to fill out the "Vehicle Accident Registration Form," "Accident Notification," "Rights Transfer Form," and a list of required documents for theft insurance claims. Obtain Proof: After reporting to the insurance company, wait for 3 months, then obtain a vehicle loss certificate from the public security department. After that, you can claim compensation from the insurance company. Lost Vehicle Report: After three months since the vehicle was lost, submit a lost vehicle report to the public security department. The public security department will issue an official loss certificate for the claim.
