    my 10-months old innova[G] got 1 scratch, 3 small dents and had a tail light broken(it's only a small damage, i used to have it taped),should i claim the insurance(security pacific corp.-bought it from the dealer) and have my innova repaired by the casa, or just repair it by the other auto repair shop?

    If i want to claim the insurance, what should i tell to the insurance representative about the damages, damage made by my own? someone told me just tell the insurance rep. that l parked my innova in the street, when i came back, there happens damages on it, will this works?
    and how much will be the participation fee? thanks!

    Industry standard rates are usually Php3k/panel.

    Hindi ba kaya ng paintless dent removal yung dents? Painting would be my last resort because even though it may appear like a good match at first, the repainted area sometimes has a tendency to age differently than the rest of the car.

    usually the participation is .5% of the covered amount. Yes you can claim it sa insurance. just make an affidavit of what happened.

    Mapfre Insular of Spain does not require affidavit or police report, they give you forms for claiming in their kit.

    In their study in Europe only about 5% are bogus claims so they offering that service here now...

    I can help anyone here who wants to get insurance Mapfre. A lot of motorcycle riders are getting from them now.

    Innova_boy,
    I got mine with minor scratches (see attached pictures). Please help me assess how I can claim my insurance with minimum participation. From casa, they are charging me around 5T.

    Dalawang panel or bumper yan sayo... it all depends sa insurance co kasi kaya it's up to you how you will do it with your insurance co. , sakin kasi yung ibang sasakyan sa kanila ko lahat insured so madali kausap di katulad sa casa.... HTH..

    As far as I know, kailangan pa rin bayaran ang participation fee. This is the fixed amount you have to pay for every claim, regardless of the claim amount. This is to protect insurance companies against minor claims. Most insurance companies charge 1% of the insured value as participation fee for AUVs and SUVs and 0.5% for cars. but some do offer 0.5% even for AUVs and SUVs.
