UA Auto Physical Damage Coverage
- Claim Guide: The System Office of Risk Services covers physical body damage sustained to vehicles, up to seven years of age, in accidents occurring on official university business. Coverage occurs only when there has been an accident. An accident is a sudden, unexpected event, not purposeful, and not due to mechanical failure/breakdown or normal wear and tear. University departments are responsible for a deductible for each and every accident. The deductible is retained by the department responsible for the vehicle at the time of the accident.
- Accident Reporting: You must immediately report any accidents that occur during your work for the university to your supervisors, your vehicle fleet manager if you have a leased UA vehicle, and your campus risk management/safety department. The report should normally be completed on the same day, or no later than the next business day. Reporting should be done through the reporting system.
