Regarding our diminished value appraisal of a GMC Denali AWD Crew Cab with 8,095 miles that was involved in a Front and Rear Collision that caused $23,494.71 in damage. The car was disabled/towed and had 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.

We learned from these examples from sales managers at GMC dealerships in Alabama- Anytime you have frame damage listed on a Carfax you will lose at any large dealership between 30-50% of the cars value in most cases especially with this amount of damage listed. Also that anytime a dealer sees frame damage they will take it right to an auction and because of that, this is why you would have a loss this significant and also that you would lose about 30% and could be as high as 40% at trade in due to the frame damage listed because the vehicles integrity has been compromised.
