Check your wipers or car doors to see whether the person has left any notes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If there is any contact number left, you are in luck.

But remain calm. You can still make an insurance claim provided that you have <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/types-of-car-insurance-policies\/#Comprehensive_insurance\">comprehensive insurance<\/a>. In this case, you can claim on your insurance policy under the &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217;. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"what-is-a-no-fault-own-damage-claim\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_is_a_%E2%80%98No-Fault_Own_Damage_Claim%E2%80%99\"><\/span>What is a &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217;?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>A &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217; is a type of insurance claim that comprehensive policyholders can make if an accident or damage to their cars is not caused by them. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that comprehensive insurance only covers what is specified in your insurance policy. It does not provide optional or <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/additional-coverages-for-car-insurance\/\">additional coverages<\/a> such as <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/additional-coverages-for-car-insurance\/#Compensation_for_assessed_repair_time_CART\">Compensation for Assessed Repair Time (CART)<\/a> unless you purchase any additional coverages. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"will-a-no-fault-own-damage-claim-affect-your-no-claim-discount-ncd\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Will_a_%E2%80%98No-Fault_Own_Damage_Claim%E2%80%99_affect_your_No_Claim_Discount_NCD\"><\/span>Will a &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217; affect your No Claim Discount (NCD)?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>No. Your NCD will not be affected, given that you are not the party at fault.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"who-can-make-a-no-fault-own-damage-claim\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_can_make_a_%E2%80%98No-Fault_Own_Damage_Claim%E2%80%99\"><\/span>Who can make a &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217;?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>As we have mentioned, only comprehensive policyholders can make a &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217;.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 id=\"how-is-a-no-fault-own-damage-claim-different-from-an-own-damage-claim\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_is_a_%E2%80%98No-Fault_Own_Damage_Claim%E2%80%99_different_from_an_%E2%80%98Own_Damage_Claim%E2%80%99\"><\/span>How is a &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217; different from an &#8216;Own Damage Claim&#8217;?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>For a &#8216;No-Fault Own Damage Claim&#8217;, you will not lose your NCD after your claim.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>On the other hand, if you make an <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/car-insurance-claims-in-malaysia\/#Own_Damage_claim\">&#8216;Own Damage Claim&#8217;<\/a>, your NCD will return to zero during your next insurance renewal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"step-3-lodge-a-police-report\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_3_Lodge_a_police_report\"><\/span>Step 3: Lodge a police report<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Immediately lodge a police report within 24 hours when you notice the damage to your car. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Next, <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/emergency-hotlines-of-car-insurance-companies\/\">contact your insurance company<\/a> to inform them of the damage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After reporting the damage to your insurer, send your car to a workshop. We recommend sending your car to your <a href=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/insurance-panel-workshops-in-malaysia\/\">insurance panel workshop<\/a> for an easier insurance claim process. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"step-4-get-an-estimated-repair-cost\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_4_Get_an_estimated_repair_cost\"><\/span>Step 4: Get an estimated repair cost<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Typically, an insurance company will assign an adjuster to assess car damage and repair cost. The adjuster will then release a report of the assessment. Please keep a copy of the report for reference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, an insurance adjuster will estimate the duration to repair your car. If you have Compensation for Assessed Repair Time (CART) additional coverage, you can also claim for loss of use based on the assessed repair time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-attachment-id=\"20945\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/bjak.my\/blog\/220126_a12-01-03\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?fit=1080%2C1080&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"1080,1080\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"220126_A12-01-03\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-medium-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?fit=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?fit=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Send your car to a panel workshop for repair for an easier claim process\" class=\"wp-image-20945\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?resize=1024%2C1024&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?resize=300%2C300&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?resize=150%2C150&amp;ssl=1 150w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?resize=768%2C768&amp;ssl=1 768w, https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/bjak.my\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/220126_A12-01-03.jpg?w=1080&amp;ssl=1 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" data-recalc-dims=\"1\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 id=\"step-5-make-an-insurance-claim-immediately\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Step_5_Make_an_insurance_claim_immediately\"><\/span>Step 5: Make an insurance claim immediately<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>After completing the above steps, proceed to make an insurance claim as soon as possible.
