In Russia, the risks for the perpetrators of car accidents have increased significantly, even if they have valid CTP policies. This is due to the increase in the cost of body parts for many cars. One part requiring replacement, such as a headlight or bumper, can already cost more than 400 thousand rubles, and this is above the CTP payment limit. The culprit of the accident has to pay the difference.

«Lapped » for 580 thousand rubles

It was possible to get acquainted with one of these cases on condition of anonymity Autonews.ru . The driver, in his own words, «lapped » expensive crossover premium brand. The bumper trim, the hearse, the footrest and the wheel were damaged. Previously, the insurance cost of repairs was estimated at 200 thousand rubles, but in the end it amounted to 580 thousand rubles, of which more than 560 thousand rubles were for spare parts.

The victim’s insurance company paid for the repairs. 400 thousand rubles, and this is the maximum amount stipulated by law, were paid under the CTP. The remaining 180 thousand rubles were demanded by the insurance company from the culprit of a small accident.

Note that we are not talking about a luxury car like Bentley Bentayga, Rolls-Royce Cullinan or Lamborghini Urus, but about a much more massive crossover, which is regularly found on the roads.

Autonews.ru contacted the service Drom.ru I followed the current prices for body parts and made sure that the cost of even single parts can exceed 400 thousand rubles, which are paid by the insurance company under the CTP policy. So, for example, most often the insurance has to change the rear bumper  — this is a consequence of a classic accident due to inattention in traffic. The cost of such a part for Range Rover or BMW X7 SUVs is approaching 500 thousand rubles. At the same time, in addition to the bumper, the taillights may also suffer, not to mention the fifth door. Their cost can also be measured in hundreds of thousands of rubles.

In Drom.ru it is noted that in recent months, the cost of body parts, the prices of which rose sharply in 2022, began to decline. This is due to the development of parallel imports and the fall in the cost of those parts, the high prices for which were caused solely by a shortage.

Individual items have fallen in price by 10-30%, but it all depends on the specific spare parts and there are reverse examples of price increases, according to the Drom.ru .

How is the CTP repair being carried out now

The insurance company pays the cost of spare parts in accordance with the directories of the Russian Union of Motor Insurers (RSA), which are regularly updated. The current version of the reference books was adopted on March 19, 2023, however, in the RSA, in May, they began discussing its change.

As told Autonews.ru Ilya Plisov, a member of the board of the Russian Union of Car Services, the money that insurers pay for CTP is not enough to repair a car using new original parts. Accordingly, either the client agrees to use non-original or second-hand parts, or they refuse to repair him.

«If the customer does not agree to unoriginal or used spare parts, the service refuses to repair and sends it back to the insurance company. If the insurance company no longer has contracts with other service stations in this region, then the client will inevitably receive compensation for CTP in money,” says Plisov.

His thesis that CTP payments do not cover the cost of original spare parts, Plisov backed up with the cost of parts for the premium BMW X5 crossover. At the same time, the amount paid by insurance companies is enough to use a used spare part or an unoriginal analogue.

A similar picture develops when repairing not only premium cars, but also cars of the mass segment with the difference that their headlight alone will not cost 700 thousand rubles. Nevertheless, the consequences of a frontal impact at low speed for Skoda Octavia, requiring replacement of the bumper, headlights, hood and wings, will no longer meet the limit of 400 thousand rubles. subject to the use of original parts.

According to Plisov, this does not mean that car services completely refuse to repair CTP.

“The main part of insurance companies’ contracts was terminated with official dealer services. At the moment they lost access to warehouses, and there were no large number of contracts with free distributors at that time. Now everything is coming back, I admit that the reverse wave has already begun to restore the number of HUNDRED with contracts,” the expert says.

You will have to pay even for an insured car

If 400 thousand rubles paid by the insurance company for CTP is not enough for repairs, the victim has the right to demand the difference from the culprit of the accident. This right is fixed in the ruling of the Supreme Court of July 26, 2022.

At the same time, if the victim’s car is insured under a hard hat, then the insurance company will pay the cost of repairs, and then demand the missing amount from the culprit. According to Plisov, the courts in such cases almost always side with insurance companies.

Nevertheless, the RSA notes that situations when the limit of 400 thousand rubles is exceeded are rare. So, in April, the average amount of payments to victims of CTP amounted to 86.5 thousand rubles, and it decreased by 1% compared to May.

For those who are afraid of becoming the culprit of an accident with an amount of damage exceeding 400 thousand rubles, insurers traditionally recommend issuing additional voluntary insurance policies. Their cost, as a rule, is small, but since such a service does not fall under the CTP rules, there may be nuances in voluntary insurance contracts.

In particular, the limit of payments under such policies can be summed up for all insured events that occurred due to the fault of the client of the insurance company during the period of validity of the contract. In the case of CTP, the limit of 400 thousand rubles applies to each accident separately and, in theory, the insurance company can pay significantly more than this amount for the duration of the policy.
