What Happens When My Kia Needs Smash Repairs?
If you’ve been in an accident with your Kia, you’ll likely need a smash repair, or your insurance will evaluate whether your Kia is a total loss. This designation means the vehicle is unsafe or that repair costs exceed its value to restore it to factory standards. If deemed a total loss, your insurer will issue a payout based on your coverage type.
If you’ve only been involved in a slight accident, you may be able to continue to drive your Kia as long as there are no panels at risk of falling off or damaged lights. However, it’s best to have any damage on your Kia repaired as soon as possible. It may not look bad on the surface, but underlying issues may arise from components that are difficult to see and driving around in your damaged Kia can put both you and others at risk.
If your Kia isn't covered by insurance or the damage is minor and you're opting not to file a claim, a smash repair business can offer a repair quote. Keep in mind, however, that once your Kia is disassembled, additional repairs might be necessary.
