Non-Fault Accident Claims
Hardings ARC also assists with non-fault accident claims. We can claim directly for third-party insurance on your behalf. All we require from you is the details of what happened and the contact details for the other party so that our accident management team will issue a claim to them directly.
We will also provide a hire vehicle, similar to the car that has been damaged. All of this is completely free of charge as the costs go directly to the third party. Remember, you can request to your insurance company that you want us to repair your vehicle, so make sure you call us if you have a car accident.
