Buick Service Tips: What to Do After an Accident
Anything can happen on the open road in Fairless Hills, PA, so being prepared for the unexpected is key for drivers. Unfortunately, accidents happen, but it is important that you remain calm while taking the necessary steps to handle the situation.
We want you to know that our team at Peruzzi Buick GMC is here for you with customer care and expert Buick service in all types of situations. Here are our best post-car accident tips.
Step One: Check for Injuries
No matter who is at fault for the accident, the safety of everyone involved is what matters most. Check the condition of yourself, your passengers, and the individuals in the other vehicle. If there are injuries, call 9-1-1 to get an ambulance on the scene.
Step Two: Move Your Vehicle
If your GMC Terrain is still running, you will need to move it to the shoulder of the road to avoid being hit by other moving cars. Ideally, we recommend setting up flares or reflective cones around your car to alert other cars.
Step Three: Call Police
Even if there are no injuries involved, you will still need to call the police to file a report for your insurance. When the police arrive, all drivers will give their sides of the story and the officer will take notes to determine who is at fault.
Step Four: Gather Information
You will need some information for your insurance company from the other driver(s) involved, including names, insurance companies, and phone numbers. You will also need the police report number, police officer’s name, and photos of the damage.
Step Five: Repair
To get your car back in tip-top shape, look to our Peruzzi Collision Center. All insurance companies are welcome and our team of certified technicians will repair all damage in a timely manner.

If you’re searching for a small and capable SUV with adequate cargo space for your necessities, head to Peruzzi Buick GMC to test drive the 2020 Buick Encore GX. Our Buick dealership near Levittown carries the latest model releases, pre-owned Buick vehicles, and certified pre-owned options.
Prior to your visit, we recommend researching the Buick Encore GX and some of its competitors, including the 2020 Hyundai Kona.
2020 Buick Encore GX Details
Falling between the Buick Encore and the larger Buick Envision, the 2020 Buick Encore GX offers three available trim levels. It has multiple engines to choose from, including a 1.2-liter three-cylinder engine that produces 137 horsepower and 162 lb-ft of torque. It also offers a turbocharged engine that puts out 155 horsepower and 174 lb-ft of torque.
On the inside, you’ll discover an eight-inch touchscreen with standard Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ integration and a mobile hotspot. This vehicle may be smaller, but it offers an ample cargo capacity of 50.2 cubic feet with the second row folded down.
2020 Hyundai Kona Details
On the flip side, the 2020 Hyundai Kona only offers two engine options. Like the Buick Encore GX, the Hyundai Kona comes with front-wheel drive, but all-wheel drive is only available as an optional upgrade.
When you step inside of the Hyundai Kona, you will find a seven-inch color touchscreen with Apple CarPlay™ and Android Auto™ integration. In order to obtain a larger screen, you will need to upgrade to the Ultimate trim level. When the second row is folded down, the Hyundai Kona taps out at 45.8 cubic feet of cargo space.
The 2020 Buick Encore GX is an SUV that’s small but mighty with enhanced safety features and a thoughtful interior. To take it for a test drive, visit Peruzzi Buick GMC. We hope to see you soon!
Interested in a new Buick vehicle, but don’t know how to pay for it? Consider investing in a Buick lease from Peruzzi Buick GMC.
Not only will you have access to the latest Buick SUV models at our GMC Trenton location, but we can also provide you with convenient online tools to ease your shopping experience. Find out how you can begin the process of leasing your next Buick vehicle.
How Leasing Works
When you choose to lease a Buick Encore, you are essentially borrowing money from a financial institution to rent instead of buy the vehicle. In order to help you out, our finance team will need to gather information regarding your finances, living situation, and employment status to find a monthly payment arrangement that will work for you.
To shorten the in-person process, you may provide us with this information via the secure credit application on our website.
Why You Should Lease
There are a variety of reasons why drivers choose to lease instead of buy. If you want to drive a brand new SUV rather than an aging model, leasing may be optimal, as the agreements typically last no more than 36 months.
Leasing will also help you save money by allowing you to make a small down payment and lower monthly payments. Not to mention, repair costs will be included in your lease.
When your lease term ends, you have several options going forward; you can either lease a new model, buy the SUV you’re driving, or walk away. While leases are an excellent option for many people, they are not ideal for all. Due to mileage caps, leases are best for drivers who have shorter commutes and an alternate vehicle for long road trips.
Our team looks forward to helping you find a Buick car or SUV that meets your needs. Head to our website to apply for your lease today!

- Forward Collision Alert: When a front-end collision is detected or if you’re following the car ahead too closely, forward collision alert will let you know with an alert.
- Teen Driver: If your newly-licensed teen will be using your vehicle, feel at ease by setting speed alerts, scheduling audio limitations, and activating certain active safety features. To review your child’s driving habits and discuss, take a look at the in-vehicle report card.
