Jangan Percaya Dengan Tokei Car Wash & Insuran

Cerita ni cerita betul. Bukan cobaan punya.

Anak buah gua bagitahu gua, dan gua tanpa segan silu nak kongsikan dengan lu orang. Silalah lu orang semua berhati-hati kalau lu memang ada tabiat hantar kereta ke car wash (sebab malas nak cari parkir atau konon-kononnya buat kerja 2 dalam 1) atau tinggalkan kereta kat jokey, lepas tu sesedap rasa lu pergi shopping.

Dua minggu lepas anak buah gua hantar Toyota Harrier dia ke car wash dalam kawasan parkir Bangsar Shopping Complex sebab dia ada janjitemu dengan cikaro kat situ. Dia dengan akal pendek yang tidak dibuat-buat terus bagi kunci kereta kat tokei car wash dan tanpa perlu menyedut sepam dua rokok, terus ke tempat janjitemu dengan seorang cikaro.

Lepas temujanji dan ringan-ringan dengan cikaro, dia pergilah ke car wash untuk ambil balik kereta. Dalam kepala memang dan terbayang kereta yang dah berkilat, kusyen dah gebu macam pipi cikaro. Tapi tokei car wash tu cakap kereta dia dah ada orang ambil. Terkejut beruk/cipan/bab*/matno  dia. Tangan yang tadi sempat ringan-ringan dengan cikaro dah rasa ringan jer nak singgah di pipi tokei car wash tu.

Tanpa pilihan lain, terpaksalah dia buat report polis dan claim insuran. Kereta dah dicuri!

Dengan selamba badak dan seperti biasa, syarikat insuran tolak claim dia. Macam biasa, insuran ni masa nak masuk macam-macam janji dia, tapi asal claim saja tolak, claim saja tolak. Alasan syarikat insuran tu tolak  sebab kereta dia bukannya dicuri, dia yang memandai-mandai bagi kunci kereta kat orang lain yang entah sapa-sapa, sapa suruh?

Apsal tak tunggu kereta siap cuci? Dah tak sabar-sabar nak ringan-ringan dengan cikaro?

Jadi, pesan gua pada lu orang semua, lain kali hati-hati. Kalau nak hantar kereta ke car wash, tunggu sampai kereta siap dicuci, jangan sekali-kali tinggalkan kunci kepada orang yang tidak dikenali.

Seorang pengurus insuran telah sahkan bahawa memang insuran takkan cover kalau perkara seperti ini terjadi.

This is a real story, my nephew told me, & I would like to share with all of you. Be careful, if u hv the habit of sending yr car for car wash or similar matter (car jockey etc) while in shopping complex...

Two weeks ago my nephew sent his Toyota Harrier for car wash in the car park of Bangsar Shopping Complex while he had an appointment there. He handed the car keys to the car wash people n left the car park for his appointment.

After the appointment he went to collect his car, & the car wash people told him that his car had been collected. How CAN??? After a prolonged argument without any results, he had no choice, but to make a police report... n follow up by insurance claim..

Insurance company rejected his claim 'cos the reason is the car was not stolen, the point of contention was why did he hand over the car keys to someone unknown, n why did he not wait there till the car washing was finished...? ??

So, be careful next time. If u really need to send yr car for car wash, better stay there and wait for yr car, if not, this may happen to you... ALWAYS GET AN OFFICIAL RECIEPT LIKE YOU DO WHEN YOU SENT YOUR CAR FOR SERVICING AT HONDA, PROTON, TOYOTA ... DON'T PLAY A FOOL.

Pls forward this msg to all your friends to warn all of them...

Thank you for the Information.

I am a Senior Manager with MCIS ZURICH and confirm that if you hand over the keys of your car for someone to take care example :- Car Wash, Car Park and on your return if the Car is 'taken' away, Insurer WILL NOT PAY for the 'Loss'.
