Getting into an accident can be stressful and it is understandable that you immediately want to rush to the nearest workshops to get your vehicle repaired as soon as possible. At Zurich, we understand that in this unfortunate situation, you would want your vehicle to be repaired and cared for by professionals. Hence, we have a selection of panel workshops that have fulfilled the criteria set by PIAM. The panel workshops are also required to pass PIAM’s annual assessment through PARS (- PIAM Approved Repairers Scheme), which maintains the quality of the workshops.
