Manitoba Public Insurance is stepping up to pay for the cost of additional vehicle cleaning before and after car repairs are made during the COVID-19 outbreak.
The public insurer announced a new program that will see customers covered for the cost to clean and disinfect vehicles sent to a mechanics shop Wednesday. “A special allowance will be paid to the participating shops, as we continue to ensure our customers’ safety is ensured,” said Ben Graham, MPI’s president and CEO, in a release. “This was the right thing to do and we thank the repair trade associations for their assistance and cooperation. “Customers need not worry about the condition of their vehicle when it’s returned to them.
