Mazda 3 Car Smash Repairs
My Mazda 3 needs smash repairs, what do I do now?
For minor accidents, you may be able to continue driving your Mazda 3 as long as there are no panels at risk of falling off or damaged lights. However, it's advisable to repair any damage promptly. Although it might not appear serious, underlying issues could exist in hard-to-see components, and driving a damaged Mazda 3 can endanger both you and other motorists.
If you've been in a major accident with your Mazda 3, you'll likely need a smash repair, or your insurer will assess whether your Mazda 3 is a total loss. This means the vehicle is unsafe to drive, or the repair costs exceed its value to restore it to factory standards. If declared a total loss, your insurer will issue a payout based on your coverage type.
If your Mazda 3 doesn’t have insurance coverage or the damage is minor and you're choosing not to file a claim, a smash repair business can provide a repair estimate. Be aware, however, that once your Mazda 3 is disassembled, there may be additional repairs that might become necessary.
