Regulations
The terms of the insurance include specific regulations. The policyholder is requested to follow the manufacturer's specifications, proper maintenance and use of recommended oils and fuels. Maintenance service must be carried out by authorized service personnel and only the oils recommended by the manufacturer and the fuels approved by the manufacturer may be used. Service operations must be documented in a service book (or equivalent) and shown in the event of damage. If the regulations are not followed, the compensation in the event of damage may be reduced or not paid at all.
Valuation and remuneration rules
Compensation is paid up to the amount corresponding to the damage, valued using the CABAS calculation system and in accordance with the documented provisions of the terms and conditions of the insurance. The Company has the right to decide whether to repair the vehicle, to replace it with an equivalent vehicle or to pay the damage in cash.
Länsförsäkringar does not pay
a) the cost of improving or modifying the vehicle in connection with the repair of damage
(b) any depreciation after repair due to damage
c) additional cost due to overtime repair work or due to spare parts being transported by means other than the usual means of transport, unless the company has specifically approved the additional cost
(d) for VAT if the policyholder is subject to VAT accounting.
Towing/home transportation of vehicles
In the event of compensable mechanical and electronic damage, reasonable salvage costs from the site of the damage to a designated workshop are covered. Reasonable costs for repatriation after repairs are also covered. Compensation is only paid after the vehicle has been salvaged in connection with compensable damage.
Age deduction
Age deductions on replaced parts are made depending on the number of hours of use of the vehicle at the time of the damage or on the age of the vehicle. The table below shows the amount of the deduction as a percentage of the value of the parts. Please note that the policyholder's insurance certificate shows how many hours the insurance applies to.
