Coverage limits
Own damage cover (Kasko)
Covered
Kasko covers damage to the insured car (and permanently fitted accessories/factory AV equipment), including theft and robbery, with settlement either by repair or cash payment based on the last known purchase price of a comparable car.
Section: Kasko > 2 Vi dækker
Skader på bilen, herunder tyveri* og røveri*.
Total loss settlement
Covered
If a car is settled as a total loss, cash compensation equals the purchase price for a comparable car (same make, model, type, age and condition). New-value replacement applies to non-leased passenger cars if the car was factory-new at policy inception, the damage occurs within one year of first registration, and repair costs exceed 50% of the car's new value; demo cars with max. 6,000 km driven qualify under the same conditions if only registered to the dealer.
Section: Kasko > 4 Sådan erstatter vi > 4.3 Du får kontant erstatning
Erstatningen fastsættes til den kontante købspris for en tilsvarende bil, det vil sige samme mærke, model, type, alder og stand.
Partial damage repair
Covered
Codan repairs the car to its pre-damage condition (or settles in cash if repair is uneconomical), excluding loss of resale value, replacement of worn/corroded parts, cosmetic mismatch between parts, and out-of-hours repair surcharges.
Section: Kasko > 4 Sådan erstatter vi > 4.2 Reparation
Vi dækker ikke - forringelse af bilens handelsværdi* som følge af reparationen - udskiftning af slidte eller tærede dele - kosmetiske uligheder mellem ubeskadigede og erstattede dele - ekstraudgifter til reparation uden for normal arbejdstid.
Theft and robbery cover
Conditional
Kasko covers theft and robbery of the car; if the car is not found within four weeks of reporting, cash compensation is paid. If Codan has required an approved immobilizer and tracking system in the policy, cover is conditional on it being installed, activated, transmitting to an approved control centre, and the car being locked with keys removed and stored securely.
Section: Kasko > 2.1 Startspærre og genfindingssystem
Ved tyveri* af bilen er det en betingelse for at få dækning, at: - der er monteret en startspærre og et genfindingssystem, der er godkendt af Codan
Glass damage
Covered
Damage to the car (including windows) is covered under Kasko as part of comprehensive own-damage cover; reparable stone-chip windscreen damage is exempt from deductible if Kasko or Delkasko is chosen; a special (higher) deductible applies if the windscreen must be replaced rather than repaired.
Section: Stenslag > A. Hvad dækker vi?
Hvis reparation ikke er mulig, og forruden skal skiftes, betales den for Kasko gældende selvrisiko. Er Udvidet glas valgt, betales dog den selvrisiko, der gælder for Udvidet glas.
Natural perils / weather damage
Excluded
Damage caused by natural catastrophes such as earthquakes is excluded under the general terms, and Kasko separately excludes damage caused by weather and wind, e.g. frost damage or corrosion/rust.
Section: Kasko > 3 Vi dækker ikke
skader, der skyldes vejr og vind, fx frostsprængning eller rusttæring
Vandalism (hærværk)
Covered
Vandalism damage is covered under Kasko as part of the general 'damage to the car' cover (it is not among the listed exclusions), and is explicitly covered under Delkasko and under the optional zero-deductible cover (Selvrisikosikring).
Section: Delkasko > 2 Vi dækker
skader på bilen ved hærværk*
Roadside assistance (Vejhjælp)
Optional
Optional add-on covering breakdown/accident assistance (towing, jump-start, tyre change, fuel delivery, lock-out, recovery, continued journey costs) for cars under 3,500 kg, sold in two variants (with or without trailer/caravan). One assistance is given per incident; cover applies throughout Denmark (excluding Greenland and the Faroe Islands) and, on special terms, in countries covered by the Red Card scheme.
Section: Vejhjælp > C. Hvor dækker vi?
Vejhjælp gælder overalt i Danmark, undtagen Grønland og Færøerne. Derudover dækker vi i de lande, der er omfattet af Rødt Kort-ordningen med særlige vilkår.
Replacement vehicle / rental car
Excluded
Roadside assistance (Vejhjælp) explicitly does not cover the cost of a replacement car, and Kasko's foreign rescue cover does not cover vehicle rental costs for cars with a total weight between 3,000 and 3,500 kg driven abroad.
Section: Vejhjælp – uden påhængsvogn > 3 Vi dækker
Vi dækker ikke udgifter til af- og pålæsning samt udgift til erstatningsbil.
Driver's seat accident cover (Førerplads)
Optional
Optional add-on covering personal injury to the car's own driver in accidents where no other motor vehicle is involved, including boarding/alighting injuries; compensation follows the Danish Liability for Damages Act (loss of earnings, medical costs, pain and suffering, permanent injury, loss of earning capacity, dependants' loss, funeral costs).
Section: Førerplads > 1 Vi dækker
fysiske skader på bilens fører ved kørselsuheld, hvor ingen andre motordrevne køretøjer er indblandet
Key conditions
Repair network requirements
Codan may direct repairs to a nominated workshop and parts supplier (including its approved 'Fordelsværksted' network); if repaired elsewhere, Codan pays only what its own network would normally charge for the same repair.
Anti-theft requirements
Where required by the policy, theft cover is conditional on an approved immobilizer and tracking system being fitted and active at the time of the theft, transmitting to an approved control centre, and the car being locked with keys removed and stored securely.
Claim notification deadline
All claims must be reported to Codan immediately; theft, robbery and vandalism must also be reported to the police immediately, as delay can affect the compensation under the Insurance Contracts Act.
Deductible rules
The deductible is the part of the claim the policyholder pays themselves. No deductible applies in specific cases (e.g. rescue-cover claims, claims where the at-fault party's liability lapses, claims occurring while the car is at a dealer/workshop, reparable windscreen stone chips under kasko/delkasko). Only one (the highest) deductible is charged if both liability and kasko claims arise, or if multiple Codan policies apply to the same claim; a special higher deductible applies if the windscreen must be replaced.
Direct payment
Codan can direct repairs to an approved repair network (Codan Fordelsværksteder) and may pay/advance costs directly to the workshop (e.g. VAT on repairs is advanced by Codan and reclaimed from the customer); Codan can also choose to settle a claim with a cash payment instead of repair.
Territorial scope
Kasko covers damage abroad in Green Card countries on the same terms as in Denmark, provided the damage is not covered by another insurance covering driving abroad; roadside assistance under Vejhjælp applies throughout Denmark (excluding Greenland and the Faroe Islands) and, on special terms, in countries covered by the Red Card scheme.
