AA car insurance expensive and rubbish

1
On September 23rd last year I drove through some flood water on my way to our daughters house, I drove slowly, I had no choice because of cars behind me etc. Driving through the flood water caused my power steering to fail, a light comes on the dashboard warning you do not drive, I made it to my daughters house and I called the AA recovery and they sent one of their engineers to diagnose the fault which he did using his diagnostic equipment, I also rang the AA insurance line to make them aware, they said no problem it would be covered and promptly arranged a courtesy car. Over the next 3 or 3 weeks they attempted to find a garage to look at my car and they failed to do this, the garages they were sending me to were body repair garages. In the end they asked me if I could find someone, i rang a couple of Audi dealers and even got my car recovered to one of them but when their director heard it was being paid by the AA insurance he told me to collect the car because they took too long to pay and he didn’t want to deal with them. So after about 5 weeks the AA insurance sent an independent assessor, who was obviously used to looking at collision damaged cars because all he did was take a photo of the sides, front and back of my car, then he checked the tyre tread depths before opening and closing the bonnet. He then started my car and of course this warning light came on “power steering failure” He then told me what I already know that it was a power steering failure. He then said he’d seen this before water getting into the steering rack and as my car was 8 years old this had probably been building up over time until I went through the flood water and pushed it over the edge. He wrote this in his report to the AA and they promptly took my courtesy car back and said my car wasn’t covered as this was fair wear and tear. I’ve since contacted Audi main head office and they’ve confirmed there’s no such history of this as a fault on the Audi A5 car. The AA insurance are still adamant that I’m not covered, based on this assessors theory. I am not happy at all with their service to me. I’ve e just had a reply from AA car insurance saying “ sorry to hear about my experience give the claims team a call to see if they can help,” unfortunately I’ve been in touch with them for the last 3 months and they are still adamant that are not going to be held responsible for my repair even though I’ve been in touch with Audi themselves and they refute the independent assessors claim that this is a know fault that builds up over years, and he did all that without looking at anything, they did reply suggesting I talk to customer care to resolve this but unfortunately I’ve already done this and they have dismissed my claim again Reviewed on: 13th January 2025

Car insurance renewal rip off

2
Car renewal offered with a £220 increase from last year. 13 years no claims, they were set to take on automatic renewal. When I found cheaper deal after much deliberation they confirmed they could match . Sick of companies trying to rip off loyal customers with large premium hikes on automatic renewal. They hope customers push back . Whatever happened to valuing loyal customers! Reviewed on: 4th September 2024
