In the Event of a Collision
Its never fun to be involved in a collision ,but it doesn’t have to be disastrous either. Here are some things you can do to make it easier.
Immediately after a collision you should:
~ Take a deep breath. Check to make sure everyone is alright. In case of injuries, call 911.
~ Never leave the scene until all matters are settled.
~ Only move your vehicle if its position puts you in danger , or you’re instructed by a police officer to do so.
~ Give only necessary and requested information to police and other parties involved in the accident.
~ If you need roadside assistance, call the number provided by your vehicle manufacturer. You will find the number in your owner’s manual.
~ If your vehicle is towed, know where it is taken, and the name and number of the towing service.
~ Remove all valuables, insurance information and registration from the vehicle.
~ Collect the driver’s name, address, phone number, drivers license number and insurance information; vehicle make , model, year and plate number. Also make sure to collect the names and numbers of any and all witnesses.
~ If possible, call your insurance company from the scene of the accident so they can walk you through the information they will need. If a police report is needed, simply call the police the next day.
~ Choose a reputable repair facility, and remember whether you choose a GM Goodwrench Dealer or a private body shop, you’ll be living with their work for a long time.
~ Read the estimate carefully, making sure you understand the work to be done.
~ Insist that only genuine GM Collision Parts be used to restore your GM car or truck. If not imitation parts may be used.
