Claim Procedures & How To File A Claim

It is Your responsibility to authorize tear down and diagnosis to the point where damage is visible, and a cause of failure can be determined. It is Your responsibility to protect the Vehicle from further damage when a mechanical failure has occurred. Continued operation of the Vehicle after any mechanical breakdown occurs shall in all cases constitute failure to protect the Vehicle. Failure to protect the Vehicle is not limited to continued operation after mechanical breakdown alone but may constitute other acts of neglect by You. Be prepared to provide evidence that the maintenance services have been performed as specified above. Please ensure that all the required documents are included and are clearly legible.

Prior authorization by an Administrator’s Claim Examiner is required. Customer’s Repair Facility MUST obtain an authorization number from the Administrator PRIOR to repairing the Vehicle. Repairs not authorized by the Administrator's Claim Examiner WILL NOT be accepted. Have the Repair Facility's technician or service writer call Administrator for verification of coverage and obtain a claim ID number. Administrator will arrange for payment of authorized claim at that time. Administrator can be contacted Monday through Friday at (833) 267-5309 Emergency repairs performed during non-business hours MUST be reported the following business day. Reimbursement will be provided, pursuant to the coverage and limits of this section, for covered claims. Administrator reserves the right to determine where repairs shall be made, and to investigate all claims and inspect any Vehicle. Once a claim ID number is obtained and repairs are completed, all repair orders and documentation must be submitted to Administrator within 60 days to be eligible for payment. You can submit claim documents by emailing us at claims@dealeradmin.io or calling (833) 267-5309 Monday through Friday 9AM to 5PM CST.
