[AndyDemarco]

Yesterday my proton putra red color was stolen in front of the house at shah alam section 8.

Car details are as follow:
Model: Proton Putra
Color: Red
Engine: GSR (but looks normal from outside)
No Plate: WJF 2929

My putra have front PROMOTE bumper, other than that theres no side or rear lips whatsoever the outlook is pretty much standard overall. Although it have gsr engine, the exhaust and intercooler including rims are also stock standard. At the left side on the back theres a small dent and scratch.

If u happen to cross by this car, give me a call at 019 610 3835 or 019 214 5941.
Police report have been filed.

Would be appreciate if everyone can keep an eye for it.

p/s: Please be careful and secure your car properly, doesnt mean thief are afraid to steal it even if you put it inside your house.

sorry for your lost bro. picture of your car would be helpful. you park your car outside your house meaning outside the gate or inside?

i've gone thru the experience in 2007. my sgti stolen near my office. i hope the thieves n their family generations will receive what they deserve.

perhaps i could share my experience with u so that u have a general idea what to expect or need to do.

1. car stolen > lodge police report > notify bank & insurance co
2. insurance company send forms for me to fill in > promptly fill them up n send back to them
3. insurance company send loss adjuster to come n see me, after about 2 weeks if i recall correctly > feels like an interview... how u lost your car, where u park, what time, any additional security systems installed i.e. steering lock, brake lock, etc...
4. follow up with my IO (investigation officer) closely. requested for a report from my IO after about 30days. the report states that my car could not be located n case is closed.
5. send the report to my insurance company.
6. rcvd first offer from insurance company when close to reaching 60days. (fyi i insured 40k 1st party. 2007 sgti was selling at approx 32k +-). their first offer nearly made me faint. less than 20k.
7. i replied in writing to the insurance company to protest n appeal. i made a conscious effort to be firm but polite.
8. after 2 1/2 mths rcvd second offer from them...24k to 26k. (sorry i can't remember exactly how much already) took the offer... i sign a voucher the insurance company delivered to me then send back to them
point worth noting: the insurance company will look at newspaper advertisement, motortrader or thru other means to assess how much your car market value at the time it was stolen. like my case i insure 40k also no use since mkt value that time only about 32k. somemore they pay i think about 80% from the perceived mkt value only. i was just glad it was settled within 3 mths as i did a lot of research when my car was stolen. most cases can drag until 6 mths, n some even longer...

hope this helps

thanx for the info speed7791. parked the car outside the gate.
i guess i have to follow up with my IO to close the case withing one month so i can give the case report to the insurance company. but the insurance said they will send their adjuster to interview me within one month :( still looking for the car pics though i dont think i have ever took one purposely.
2001 putra market price now around 25k. my car sum insured only 22k. but i doubt i will get that amount or even 20k.

 

[speed7791]

it'll be good if u can have sort of minimum expectation in mind so that if their offer is right u can straight away take it, otherwise if want to write to them to appeal will take additional waiting time. but then again since u already no more loan time may not be an issue to u.

i think the 80% from mkt price is written somewhere in the insurance policy. maybe can check yours. tats y i accepted their second offer without hesitation.

heheh yeap yeap

 

[azameel]

one thing to share about car insurance
they will pay market price or ur sum insured whichever is lower
to get a rough idea of ur market price, you can refer to any banks, usually they will have a list of current market price of cars in malaysia for loan purposes (not sure u can see the list officially or u need to know someone inside the bank to look at it unofficially)
i may be not 100% right but this is what happen when my dad lost his car few years back
he just get 55k instead of a 88k sum insured

anyhow, hope u will find back ur car

 

[kumar22mostwanted]

yeap its much better to find back the car at least can still sell it for market value
unlike just settling with the insurance companies that pay so little of what our car is actually worth
will keep a lookout bro
