A hailstorm just passed through and left your vehicle with dents or cracked glass—now it’s time to file a claim. But be careful: the process has some pitfalls that can delay your repairs or even reduce your payout. Here are the top hail damage claim mistakes to avoid, and how Comeback Auto Assist can help you get the results you deserve.
Most insurance providers have time limits for weather-related claims. Waiting weeks or months can lead to a denied claim or reduced coverage. As soon as you notice damage, file your claim and schedule an inspection.
Some hail damage—especially small dents or paint cracks—can be hard to see. At Comeback Auto Assist, we use special lighting and tools to catch even the most subtle damage so nothing gets missed on your claim.
Before it rains again or your car gets dirty, take clear photos of the damage. These provide proof that the hail caused the issue and can help with faster claim approval.
You have the legal right to choose your own repair shop. Choosing Comeback Auto Assist ensures your vehicle gets high-quality repairs—not just what’s cheapest for the insurance company.
Sometimes additional issues are discovered after the repair begins—like damage to internal components or sensors. Working with an experienced shop means they’ll communicate directly with your insurance for supplemental approvals, so you’re fully covered.
Many people assume hail damage won’t be covered—or that it’s too minor. But if you have comprehensive coverage, hail repair is usually included, often with little or no out-of-pocket cost (aside from your deductible).
Filing a hail damage insurance claim doesn’t have to be complicated—but avoiding these mistakes can save time, money, and stress. At Comeback Auto Assist, we help customers every day by inspecting damage, handling claims, and restoring vehicles to their pre-storm condition.
