Beyond offering a streamlined portfolio of products, Assurant Vehicle Care is designed to help dealers and consumers stay ahead of another challenge of our times, as inflation drives repair costs – and claim totals – higher. “Years of proprietary data on cost of claims, claims frequency and other factors have enabled us to optimize these products with pricing designed to future-proof them against the effects of inflation," added Strickland. “This will help protect dealership revenue and ensure consumers retain the same high level of coverage.”
To meet consumer expectations to digitally manage their lives, the Vehicle Care by Assurant app and VehicleCarePlan.com helps drivers stay better connected to their vehicle – and their dealer – to easily manage vehicle care. With these online tools, drivers can:
- Digitally store their service contracts and protection plans
- Stay updated on the status of a claim
- Document service history
- Receive just-in-time maintenance notifications
- Track upcoming maintenance
- Check for safety recalls
- Transfer a policy
“When customers purchase Assurant Vehicle Care, they not only get the best suite of vehicle products we’ve ever offered; they also get a convenient, intuitive online customer experience through the Vehicle Care by Assurant app and VehicleCarePlan.com website,” explained Strickland. “Consumers want digital solutions for the products they purchase to make overall car ownership easier, which in turn can enhance customer loyalty.”
To help dealers educate and market this new suite of products, Assurant has created easy-to-understand digital videos and brochures that demonstrates the value of the products to consumers.
