REPAIR PROCEDURE ISSUE:
Our client's 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 was damaged. Our client filed a claim with their carrier Progressive Insurance for the loss. Progressive Insurance issued a loss statement/repair estimate for $20,378.69 before the deductible. Our client's collision facility issued a preliminary loss statement/repair plan for $20,378.69 to return our client's 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 to its pre-loss condition. Our client came to us for assistance with the $0.00 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, the selected Independent Appraiser firm came to a binding agreement with the Progressive Insurance independent 3rd party appraiser for $26,048.21 as the loss statement/repair cost to return our client's 2026 Mercedes-Benz GLC 300 back to its pre-loss condition.
The final binding agreement between the unbiased independent appraisers identified an under-indemnification of the loss of $5,669.52 or 27.82% from the Progressive Insurance loss statement/repair estimate of $20,378.69. Through the invoking of the Progressive Insurance policy right of appraisal our client has been made whole for their loss with no out-of-pocket expense other than their deductible.
