This article shows the diminished value appraisal of a Hyundai Genesis AWD Sedan with 37,899 miles that was involved in a Front end collision in Arlington, Texas that caused $2,436.07 in damage. The vehicle was not disabled/towed, had no structural damage and no air bag deployment. The claimant hired an independent auto appraiser and made a third-party inherent auto diminished value claim for the vehicle’s loss in value. Once a car is repaired after a collision, it is worth less, often much less depending on the severity of the damage. Regardless of how well the repairer did his job, nobody will pay as much for a previously wrecked car as they would for an identical one that was never in an accident. Presenting a diminished value claim and following it through to a satisfactory conclusion is a daunting task for the average person. Obtaining a comprehensive Diminished Value Report is key.

We learned from these examples from sales managers at Hyundai dealerships in Texas – One dealer said that so many factors like what the Carfax reads, how well repairs were done, whats going on in the market – 10% could be worst case scenario. Another dealer explained that they basically look at the market in a 100 mile radius but also how well the car was fixed. It could be 10% back.
