Your Rights

  • In the event of an accident you have the right to demand that your Toyota is taken to an approved Toyota repairer.
  • Generally, insurance companies direct policyholders to their 'approved' repairers. As well as keeping costs down, they can also dictate the level of service and repair quality you receive. This can result in non-genuine parts being used without the repairer informing you. As well as the risk of invalidating your manufacturer's warranty, these parts may also be fitted without the same care and attention you would receive from a Toyota approved repairer.
  • As a motor vehicle insurance policy holder you have the right to choose the repairer you wish to carry out the repairs on your vehicle, regardless of your insurance company's advice. This in no way compromises your insurance contract, and we'd always recommend only using a Toyota approved repairer; after all who knows your vehicle better than us?
  • Remember, in the event of an accident you have the choice of how and where your Toyota is repaired.
