Without proper medical coordination, accident victims often make costly errors.
After a collision, questions about damage, repair options, and compensation flood your mind. Understanding your rights regarding auto care and vehicle repair helps you make informed decisions that protect your recovery. Here are answers to the most common questions MAA hears from accident victims dealing with damage.
You have the legal right to choose your own repair facility for restoration, regardless of what your insurance suggests about their preferred network. Insurance companies often pressure accident victims toward preferred shops because these facilities may prioritize cost savings over quality work. MAA connects you with independent body shops that prioritize proper restoration and your documentation needs over insurance company cost-cutting goals.
A vehicle is typically declared a total loss car accident when repair costs exceed a certain percentage of the car’s pre-accident value, usually between sixty-five and eighty percent, depending on state regulations.
Insurance companies assess damage severity, compare estimates to your car’s actual cash value, and determine whether repairs are economically feasible. MAA helps you understand determinations and ensures you receive fair car crash compensation if your vehicle cannot be economically repaired.
Rental coverage varies significantly between insurance policies, with some providing daily limits and maximum durations for repair periods while others offer no rental reimbursement at all. Your policy might include rental coverage under collision protection, or the at-fault driver’s insurance may be responsible for your transportation costs during recovery. MAA reviews your specific insurance situation to explain exactly what rental benefits apply to your vehicle accident damage claim and how to maximize your compensation for transportation needs.
Yes, you have the absolute right to select any licensed repair facility you trust for restoration, and insurance companies cannot require you to use specific body shops as a condition of coverage.
While insurers may suggest preferred network facilities for convenience, choosing an independent shop often results in higher-quality work and better documentation for your case. MAA connects you with vetted repair facilities that meet our quality standards and understand how proper restoration supports your broader injury claim.
If you’re facing a totaled vehicle situation and still have an outstanding loan, the insurance settlement goes first to your lender up to the loan balance, with any remaining compensation paid to you. Gap coverage, if you have it, pays the difference between your vehicle’s actual cash value and what you owe if the settlement doesn’t cover your full loan amount. MAA helps you understand how outstanding loans affect your recovery and whether gap coverage or other options can protect you from owing money after your car is totaled.
Repair timelines vary based on damage severity, parts availability, and shop schedules, typically ranging from a few days for minor damage to several weeks for extensive work. Complex structural damage, hard-to-find parts, or supplement discoveries during the process can extend timelines beyond initial estimates. MAA coordinates with repair facilities to keep you informed about your vehicle’s progress and helps you understand rental coverage extensions if your claim involves longer restoration than originally anticipated.
Even without rental coverage in your own insurance policy, you may still be entitled to transportation reimbursement through the at-fault driver’s liability coverage for claims.
Some repair facilities offer loaner vehicles, or you might be able to claim loss of use as part of your compensation if you had to miss work or pay for alternative transportation during the recovery period. MAA helps you explore all available options for transportation assistance during repairs or processing, even when traditional rental coverage isn’t part of your policy.
Whether you need coordination, rental assistance, or guidance navigating a total loss car accident settlement, MAA provides the professional support that ensures quality outcomes and fair compensation.
