In response to the severe hail that struck the Kanto and Kansai regions on May 14, 2026, Ikeuchi Co., Ltd., an auto body repair company, has urgently released a 'Hail Damage Countermeasure Manual.' The manual advises that replacing damaged roof panels can label a vehicle as an 'accident car,' dropping its resale value by 20-30%. Instead, they recommend sheet metal repair. Furthermore, they note that for minor repairs under 100,000 yen, paying out of pocket is often cheaper than using insurance due to premium hikes. Coinciding with this release, the new 'Ikeuchi Jidosha Honjo Store' in Saitama is holding an opening campaign from May 16 to 24, offering a 5,000 yen discount on repairs.
