How to: Protect Yourself with SCDW (Super Collision Damage Waiver)

Bad luck on the road can happen when we least expect it. On some occasions, it can even lead to costly repair charges. Fortunately, SOCAR includes basic Collision Damage Waiver (CDW) accident insurance with every booking. SCDW reduces your liabilities in an unforeseen event of an accident or damage, subject to the Terms and Conditions.

This means that in the event of an accident, SOCAR members may pay a reduced liability charge, based on vehicle type:

  • Economy (Perodua Axia or similar) : RM2000 max payable limit
  • Intermediate (Honda City or similar) : RM3000 max payable limit
  • Standard (Honda HR-V or similar) : RM3000 max payable limit
  • Luxury (BMW / MINI or similar) : RM5000 max payable limit

What is SCDW?

Super Collision Damage Waiver (SCDW) accident insurance helps members save even more in the event of an accident, by reducing the maximum payable limit for accident repair charges by a significant amount. (Subject to terms and conditions)
