Introduction
Fire & Theft insurance protects your car if thieves steal it or if fire damages it. Many car owners misunderstand when and how to file a claim. This article clears up common misconceptions and guides you to submit your claim so BJAK approves it smoothly.
1. Misunderstanding 1: “Insurance Covers All Types of Fire”
- Not all Fire & Theft insurance covers fires caused by your own negligence.
- Example: Insurance does not cover fires caused by electrical modifications or misuse.
2. Misunderstanding 2: “Car Was Stolen, But Claim Rejected”
