      30/03/2022

      In December of 2021, two days prior to having my vehicle shipped by Hansen, I had my vehicle inspected by ******. My car's inspection reported stated everything was fine, which was not a surprise because I had bought the vehicle brand new 6 months earlier. Hansen pick up my vehicle and dropped it off at the destination a few weeks later. The day after I received it, I took my car out for a ride and I noticed a noise coming from the tires. I immediately reported it to Hansen and I had my vehicle booked to be inspected as per their policy. ****** at the destination stated my wheel bearings were damaged and it cost almost $1000 to fix. I submitted my claim to Hansen with ******s report stating they suspected that the transportation of the vehicle caused the damage. Even with having the following:
      1. my vehicle inspected 2 days prior;
      2. Reporting the incident within 24 hours;
      3. Having it booked and inspected within days;
      4. My vehicle being a 2021 ******, 6 months old; and
      5. ******'s report from what they believe caused the damage...

      Hansen is still not taking any responsibility.

      Hansen's Response

      Good afternoon,
      A wheel bearing is not something we damage with the equipment we use and with our shipment process.
      And with its location, it is not a part of our driver inspection at the time of pick-up, and vehicles we ship are only driven during loading and unloading at a very low speed so drivers will not even hear if there's a strange noise coming from the tires.
      Our trucks use soft-tie-down straps that go around each tire, which allows the vehicle to ride on its own suspension, with no pressure on the tire or the vehicle itself. There is nothing that goes close enough to damage the wheel bearings.
      As for the rail leg of the move, rail secure vehicles while in the rail cars using wheel chocks. Wheel chocks resemble large wedges of polymer plastic that sit in front and behind each tire.
      There was no mishandling during loading or unloading into the rail car or onto the trailer, if there was, there would be very obvious damages under the car or on the tires and rims. There was no incident involving your vehicle to cause damage to the wheel bearings.
      Thank you,
      Hansen's Claims Department
