Your vehicle may be considered a Total Loss if it is deemed unsafe to repair.

In such cases, we will settle your claim on a Total Loss basis.

Repairs to your vehicle exceeding $50 must not be carried out without our prior written authorisation. Otherwise, the Company will not be liable for the repair expenses incurred.

7. Do I need to inform Etiqa if I privately settle the accident with the other party?

Yes, you are required to report every accident at an Etiqa Approved Reporting Centre, even if you have agreed to a private settlement with the other party. This helps protect you against any third-party claims that may arise from the accident and enables us to assist in defending you should any legal action be taken.

No, you should not accept any assistance from unknown roadside towing service. If you require towing assistance, call an Etiqa Approved Reporting Centre for a tow truck, or for further advice on the procedure for accident reporting.
