What you're covered for in a nutshell
- Accidental damage
- If your vehicle is able to be repaired and costs less than the value of the vehicle then it will be repaired to the same condition prior to the damage.
- If your vehicle is written off (costs more than or close to the value of the vehicle to repair) then its market value will be paid to you. (If your vehicle is being used as security for a loan, the payout will be credited directly to your loan).
- Theft and vandalism
- The costs involved with the recovery and transportation of your vehicle to you or the repairer.
- Legal liability protection for damage caused by your vehicle to someone else’s vehicle or property up to the value of $5,000,000.00, and up to $1,000,000.00 for bodily injury.
- Accidental death cover – if you die as a result of the car accident, $5,000.00 is paid to your estate.
- Up to $300 cover per year for lost/stolen keys and coded keypads/alarms. (No excess applies).
- Up to $750 cover per year for your trailer.
- Every policy comes with FREE glass cover. (No excess applies)
- You're also covered in the event of fire and natural disasters.
- Cover is based on market value only – not agreed value.
