Avoiding Car Insurance Scams (Part 2)

• Ask that your car be taken to a secure location where an adjuster or appraiser from your insurance company can have access to it. Some municipalities require that your vehicle be taken to a Collision Reporting Centre or police station before it goes anywhere else.
• Contact your insurance company, if possible, for information on towing and where to take your car to be repaired.
• Consider having your car towed to a preferred car repair shop. Some insurance companies use preferred repair shops where they have an agreement that guarantees your vehicle will be repaired to the highest possible standards. For more information, contact your insurance company.
