In North Carolina, drivers regularly face accidents on I-85 through Charlotte, I-40 in Raleigh and Durham, and I-95 through Fayetteville. Unfortunately, when it comes time to file a diminished value or total loss claim, insurance companies often undervalue vehicles, leaving drivers with far less than their cars are worth.

Diminished Value Claims in North Carolina

Even after proper repairs, vehicles lose market value once they carry an accident history. This is called diminished value, and under North Carolina law, drivers can pursue compensation when insurers underpay.

RJ’s North Carolina diminished value assessments:

• Establish your car’s pre- and post-accident value.
• Reference OEM standards and ADAS recalibration requirements.
• Produce court-ready reports that insurers cannot easily dismiss.
• Consistently result in clients recovering substantially more than insurer offers.

Post-Repair Inspections in North Carolina

Insurance-driven repair shops in North Carolina often rush jobs or cut corners. RJ’s independent post-repair inspections catch:

• Frame misalignment or structural compromise.
• Incorrect calibration of advanced safety systems (ADAS).
• Non-OEM or substandard replacement parts.
• Refinishing flaws or concealed damage.

These inspections ensure vehicles meet manufacturer safety and quality standards while protecting resale value.
