There have, thankfully, not been all that many unfortunate incidents of the Skoda Slavia as yet, but it has managed to perform well when it did get into those rare situations.
A Skoda Slavia owner shares his repair experience at the dealership after an unfortunate crash on the highway. Skoda prides itself on being a safety-focused carmaker. All its products boast high safety ratings and those have been translated to real-life incidents as well. The Slavia is a premium mid-size sedan that comes with a whole host of safety equipment to ensure the safety of the occupants in those undesirable incidents. This is one such example.

Skoda Slavia Crash Repair Experience
The information has been shared by the owner with Nikhil Rana who has posted the video on his YouTube channel. His aim is to support the ‘Safer Cars for India’ initiative by showing the real-life performance of various vehicles during unfortunate scenarios. He wants to raise awareness among Indian car buyers regarding the value of buying a car with a high safety rating. In this crash, the Skoda Slavia driver was on the highway when a bull appeared on the road out of nowhere. Unable to react quickly and apply the brake on time, the sedan hit the bull and threw him on the other side of the divider.

However, the owner mentions that he didn’t feel a massive jerk inside the cabin as one would feel if the car had hit a giant bull. Nevertheless, the driver got out to check the damage on the car and was surprised to see that only the bonnet has been crushed a little and there are not too many other damages. This left him utterly impressed by the build quality of the Slavia. He, then, called the dealership on a public holiday. Despite being at home, the dealership staff ordered the parts required to repair the vehicle after listening to the details of the crash.

This instilled a lot of confidence and faith in the owner about the service team. Within a matter of few days, the damaged parts had been replaced and the car was handed back to the other. The visuals of the repaired car are also available in the video. The overall handling of the servicing aspect by the Skoda dealership is commendable and we hope that every Skoda customer gets to witness such hospitality to have more confidence about buying a Skoda product.
