REPAIR PROCEDURE ISSUE:
Our client’s 2020 Dodge Charger was damaged. Our client filed a collision claim with their carrier Allstate Insurance for the loss. Allstate issued a loss statement/repair estimate for $12,265.45 before the deductible. Our client’s collision facility issued a preliminary loss statement/repair plan for $20,045.21 to return 2020 Dodge Charger to its pre-loss condition. Our client came to us for assistance with the $7,779.76 under-indemnification and out-of-pocket expense to safely return their vehicle to its pre-loss OEM condition.
As a result of going through the appraisal process in the policy, our subsidiary Vehicle Value Experts came to a binding agreement with the Allstate independent 3rd party appraiser for $18,503.47 as the loss statement/ repair cost to return our clients 2020 Dodge Charger back to its pre-loss condition.
The final binding agreement between the unbiased independent appraisers identified an under-indemnification of the loss of $6,627.90 or 50.9% from the Allstate loss statement/repair estimate of $12,265.45. Through the invoking of the Allstate policy right of appraisal our client has been made whole for their loss with no out-of-pocket expense other than their deductible.
