Have you ever had the fear of pulling over at the side of the road due to a smashed windscreen? Well, if you haven’t, it’s a lot more common than you think!
That’s why having valid car insurance is a must for most drivers if they’re looking to avoid a hefty windscreen repair or replacement bill. However, here’s the catch – most Malaysian drivers are not aware that their car insurance plans do not cover the costs of repairs or replacements of their car’s windscreen and glass windows!
In this article, we’ll cover what you need to know about windscreen insurance, how to claim for costs from a Kurnia windscreen panel and where to find the best repair or replacements for windscreens in Bangi!
What you need to know about windscreen insurance
Windscreen insurance is often part of an add-on coverage to your main car insurance policy. This form of coverage includes your front and back windscreens, all door windows and sunroof glass window.
In fact, you should have a look at your car insurance policy and search for “Endorsement 89” – this is the part of the add-on coverage that specifically applies to breakages of glass in windscreens, windows and sunroofs.
Always ensure your add-on coverage includes this clause to protect your car’s windscreen!
Most drivers, especially if you’re a frequent traveler on long-distance and high-speed highways, will find this useful as it can be quite expensive to replace your windscreen, especially as the most susceptible part of your car to get damaged by flying objects is your windscreen!
