What is Liberty Motor Insurance Claim?

This article explores Liberty car insurance claims and Liberty two-wheeler insurance claims including how to file a claim, what will be the documents required, and what could be the possible reasons for rejection of the filed claim. First, let’s look at the types of Liberty vehicle insurance claims.

Types of Motor Insurance Claims

Liberty Cashless Claim: You bring your vehicle to a network garage for repairs when you file a cashless claim. Liberty will pay the garage directly in this situation. You only have to pay your deductible.

Liberty Reimbursement Claim: In case of a reimbursement claim for your damaged vehicle, initially, you have to bear the expenses for the repair out of your pocket. After verification of all related documents, the insurer will reimburse the incurred cost. In this type of claim, it is not obligatory to get your vehicle repaired at the insurer’s network garage. You can take your vehicle to any workshop of your choice. Be sure to maintain all the repair bills accurately.

How to File Liberty Motor Insurance Claim?

Step 1: Intimation

The insurer should be notified right away if the vehicle is stolen, is involved in an accident, or is damaged in any way. To notify the insurer, you can go to the insurer’s nearest branch or visit the insurer’s official website.

Step 2: Submission of Documents

Submit the required documents online and a surveyor will be appointed to analyse the state of damages to the vehicle. A list of documents required to register the claim is provided further in this article.

Step 3: Survey

The insurance company's surveyor will evaluate the damage and repair costs after the claim is filed. Any additional costs incurred, i.e., damages to uninsured parts must be covered by the insured.
