Repair Responsibility

Vehicle user’s organization will be billed for accidents and incidents for GSA vehicles as outlined in 41CFR section 101-39.406. The vehicle operators will take the vehicle in for a repair estimate and take the vehicle in for repairs once approval is obtained from the GSA AMC. For other Government-owned vehicles, the Government is self-insured and will absorb the cost of accidents in its operating budget unless negligence has been determined.
