Automobile Dealer's Pollution Legal Liability

Pollution is a coverage seldom discussed today UNLESS you have a claim for which your regular insurance program does not provide coverage.  The level of awareness of pollution claims may have diminished, but companies are still spending millions of dollars every year to solve their problems.

You are in the automobile dealership business, therefore you have a pollution exposure.  In your day to day operations, even the best procedures in place, you are still susceptible to a major pollution claim.

A task as simple as cleaning your service area floor could result in a pollution claim costing you thousands of dollars to settle.  Why? Because the wash water contains brake cleaner fluid, oil, asbestos from brakes, and many other hazardous substances commonly found in the service area.  If your porter continually pours the wash water down the wrong drain, i.e. the municipal sewer, you have just invited the Environmental Protection Agency to come knocking on your door.

The Preferred Dealer Protection program offers the most comprehensive pollution product available in today's marketplace. Automobile Dealers' Pollution Legal Liability coverage is easy to understand, competitively priced and provides optional coverage for Pollution Legal Liability, Underground Storage Tanks or both.
