What to expect for repairs

How can I track the progress of my vehicle's repairs?

Motorserve provides regular updates on the progress of your vehicle’s repairs. You can contact us for updates, and we will keep you informed throughout the repair process.

I have a claim excess. How do I pay it, and who do I pay it to?

Your insurer will let you know how much your excess is and how it can be paid. If your insurer has a Pay Excess Online tool, then you can use that to pay your excess.
However if you haven’t already paid the excess directly to the insurer, Motorserve can assist in processing your excess payment when you pick up your vehicle. Please bring a valid credit or debit card to make the payment. Please note that we do not accept excess payments in cash or via Eftpos.

What happens if the repair process takes longer than expected?

In some cases, unforeseen circumstances or delays in parts availability may cause the repair process to take longer than initially estimated. If this occurs, Motorserve will keep you informed about the delay and provide updates on the revised timeline for completion.

Will I be able to talk to an assessor?

Motorserve have Assessors available on-site at all locations. Motorserve will ensure you are contacted by an assessor representing your insurer. They are available to assist with any technical inquiries related to the repairs.

What is the Motorserve Safety Review and what does it cover?

The Motorserve Safety Review is an inspection to ensure the vehicle is safe and compliant with all relevant standards after repairing a damaged vehicle. This process has been developed to give you confidence in the safety of your vehicle using the latest state-of-the-art equipment and highest-quality processes.

Alternative transport

My insurer says I am entitled to a taxi when I drop off the vehicle. Who arranges that?

Your insurer will inform us of your taxi entitlements and the applicable limits. We can arrange a taxi for you when you leave your vehicle for repairs and for your return to collect the vehicle. If you don’t have a taxi entitlement, we can assist in booking a taxi at your cost or provide information on local public transport options.

My insurer says I am entitled to a hire car. Who arranges that?

Your insurer will inform us of your hire car entitlements. We can arrange the hire car on your behalf, and you can collect it at Motorserve when dropping off your vehicle. Please discuss this with us before your inspection.
Please note that hire cars are provided by the insurer’s contracted hire car providers and therefore needs to be requested prior to the inspection.

I don't have a hire car entitlement but would like a hire car while my vehicle is being repaired. Is that possible?

Motorserve can arrange a hire car for you at your own cost. This is offered to customers at the insurer’s discounted pricing structure. Talk to us about this prior to your inspection.
