After an accident, many drivers discover that getting their vehicle repaired isn't the problem—it's coming up with the deductible.
Whether you're insured through State Farm, GEICO, Progressive, Allstate, USAA, Liberty Mutual, Nationwide, Travelers, Farmers Insurance, or AAA, your deductible is typically your responsibility before repairs can begin.
The good news?
Hollywood Collision Center offers financing options that may help qualified customers cover their deductible and get back on the road faster.
What Is an Insurance Deductible?
An insurance deductible is the portion of the repair bill that you agree to pay before your insurance company contributes.
Common deductible amounts include:
$250 deductible $500 deductible $1,000 deductible $2,000 deductible
For example:
If your repair bill is $6,000 and your deductible is $1,000:
You pay $1,000 Insurance pays $5,000
Many drivers don't realize how significant that out-of-pocket expense can be until after an accident happens.
The Real Problem: Coming Up With The Deductible
We hear it every day:
"I have insurance, but I don't have $1,000 sitting around right now."
Unexpected accidents can create financial stress for families.
Even when insurance covers most of the repairs, a deductible can still be a major obstacle.
Some customers delay repairs because:
They don't have the deductible available They're waiting for a paycheck They're juggling other household expenses They simply weren't prepared for an accident
Unfortunately, delaying repairs can sometimes lead to:
Additional vehicle damage Safety concerns Reduced vehicle value More inconvenience Hollywood Collision Center Offers Deductible Financing
