VIII - CarBahn Authorized Dealer Guidelines for Handling Claims

1. Advise Protection Plan Holder that evaluation of a failure does not mean that the repair is covered under this Protection Plan. All covered repairs must be approved by CarBahn prior repair.
2. Have Protection Plan Holder authorize inspection/tear down of the Vehicle to determine cause of failure and cost to repair. Save all components, including fluids and filters, should CarBahn require outside inspection. Notify Protection Plan Holder that the cost of tear down will not be paid if it is determined that the failure is not covered under this Protection Plan.
3. Contact CarBahn's warranty Department at (866) 558-4314 To obtain authorization to proceed with the claim. Be prepared with the following information when placing the call:
1. Customers Name, Best Contact Phone Number, and Email Address

2. Require Additional Evaluation, Inspection or Tear Down - CarBahn may require an inspection prior to repair being completed. If a tear down is required to determine cause of failure, Protection Plan Holder must authorize same.
3. If an inspection is required, CarBahn will arrange for the inspection. Repair facility should save all components requiring inspection, including fluids and filters. If inspection is not made within forty-eight (48) hours, contact CarBahn.
5. Review the CarBahn's findings with the Protection Plan Holder as well as what will be covered by this Protection Plan and what portion of the repairs, if any, will not be covered.
