Does your insurance include ROAD SERVICE?
Here's our experience:
We didn't realize / remember that ours did, but when we returned from a trip to the States and found a flat tire smiling back at us, we called Kevin for a suggestion. That's when he told us to look on our insurance documents for the phone number. The guy was there in a flash.

“Painless Panama Auto Claim”?
Carmen and Kevin,
I want to thank you for your help regarding the accident I had in Chitre in July of this year.

Hello Kevin,
Thanks again for all the help you gave us during the trauma with the van. It was a difficult time for me and you were a rock, which I know helped us through many tough spots. I am sorry when there was confusion. A lot of people were involved in coordinating the fix-it job on my end also. But it all worked out and everyone performed well.
