Hurricane Damage & Repair Assistance
Hurricane Insurance Claims | How To Make a Vehicle Insurance Claim
Here in Tampa Bay, we have seen the effects of major storms
first-hand as many vehicles have taken water damage or other damage
caused by debris, fallen trees, and other such storm related damage. Your team at Mercedes-Benz of Tampa is here to help in any way we can, including how to file a
damage claim with your insurance company.
Always Take photos of damage.
Taking as many photos as possible can help make the process easier. We recommend taking photographs of the outside, interior, odometer, trunk, as well as images underneath the hood and even the underside of your car. A local body shop can assist with this process, or you can bring it into our service center and we will be happy to walk you through the process.
Contact your insurance company immediately.
If you contact your insurance company as quickly as possible you will be more likely to get additional care from the people on the other side of the phone, your provider will be able to help set up damage claims (if applicable) and getting you a unique claim number. Whether you decide to bring your vehicle in to our body shop or another repair center, you will still need to keep the claim number on hand in case you need to reference it for filling out or verifying paperwork. If you are unsure how to contact your insurance provider, then feel free to call our team first, we are happy to help you with getting in touch with your insurance provider.
