WAIT TIMES FOR COLLISION-RELATED CAR REPAIRS ARE ON THE RISE!
Factors driving the increase in wait times include: Technician staffing, new and used vehicle pricing, supply chain disruptions, collision repair backlogs, shortage of vehicle inventory
For Ontario, some customers have to wait more than four months for repairs.
OPCF 20 is an endorsement you can add to your current policy, meaning it does not come as standard. The OPCF 20 will provide a rental car if yours is in the shop for repairs as a result of collision or vandalism.
Do you have ample coverage that will cover your rental car in case of collision-related car repairs are needed? You can keep your rental until your car repairs are complete, you're offered a total loss settlement, or until your coverage limit is reached—whichever comes first. Different limits are available for this coverage. However, $1,500 is usually a standard amount. You can request higher limits from your broker, if necessary.
