My Temporary Ride L.M. Rocks!!! |
I was contacted by the
Liberty Mutual adjuster who said he made a rental car reservation for me (admitting
I was not at fault) and they would handle all the costs. He could not have been more pleasant and
helpful. I thought about deleting the
post I had just put up but decided it would be more appropriate if I abjectly
admitted my failings in today’s post.
There is an auto body shop
directly across the street that was recommended by my insurance company so I went
over there with the estimate USAA had provided.
I walked in the door, gave them the estimate, and they asked if I had a
rental arranged. I gave them my last
name only and five minutes later the rental agency guy arrived to take me to
the car at his nearby office. I was
taken aback by how smoothly everything ran.
I was literally back in my office with the new car less than 15 minutes
after leaving for the auto body shop. It
was one of those cases where they do this type thing every day and when an outsider
such as me is thrust into the situation it looks remarkably efficient. One of the few times civilians have impressed
me since I retired.
So, my unsafe car is in for
repairs and I’m driving a Mazda for a week or so while that is happening. I was telling the rental car guy about the
accident and he was amazed as I was at the circumstances. He says he does this trip dozens a time a
week and hears some pretty hairy stuff from people involved in accidents.
I am admitting for the entire
world to hear that I was wrong about Liberty Mutual. It turns out they did do the right thing and
faster than they said they would.
