If you were "saving" money by raising your deductible or dropping insurance coverage on your vehicle to liability only, don't try to fix your car on the cheap! You can't cut corners on a collision repair and while many people try, you are spending good money after a bad cause.

Before you fix a wrecked vehicle, consider:

1. Accident History - a wrecked vehicle usually has a CARFAX that will hurt your vehicles' value substantially. Repairing it is simply restoring a car that will never again be worth what it was before the accident. These are lost dollars that cannot be recovered. Fixing a wrecked car is a zero sum game.
2. Paint & filler – older vehicles have paint that is extremely difficult to match and it is very visible even to the untrained eye. Paint work on a vehicle denigrates the value substantially.
3. Cheap parts & materials – OEM recycled parts are a good choice if purchased and installed correctly. Don't use just any parts to restore your vehicle, non-OEM especially can de-value the vehicle post repair.
4. Save now, pay later – if you saved by cutting your insurance coverage or raising your deductible you will most likely be a candidate for "saving the deductible". This is the fine art of cutting more corners and making cheap repairs to your vehicle so you may not have to write a check for your deductible. Wrong, wrong, wrong! Don't make cheap repairs to your vehicle, you get what you pay for and you will not get your money back on resale, in fact you may cost yourself an opportunity to sell your vehicle and be stuck with it – poor repairs and all! Some vehicles are best left damaged and sold.

If you just wrecked your car, call your insurance company then call DamageMAX. You insurance company will do everything they can for you, but sometimes it is not what YOU NEED!

You've been in a serious accident and your car is severely damaged, but your insurance company can't total your car. You want it totaled but the insurance company wants to repair it. It's not about what you want or what your insurer wants - there are state laws regarding total loss thresholds. If your car does not meet that criteria, the only thing your insurer can offer you is a check for repairs.

Today there is a another choice - DamageMAX. DamageMAX will buy your wrecked car AS-IS. You can use the funds from DamageMAX and your insurance company for the repair to buy a new vehicle. Your insurer is happy because they don't have to put you through the agony of working with a body shop to repair your car. You are happy because you can move and get a new vehicle. Everybody WINS!

Don't go it alone – DamageMAX is your "Lifeline" call, so let us help you. If we can buy your wrecked vehicle and get it out of the impound yard or body, you can walk away with cash in your hand to put toward a new vehicle. Call our toll free hotline (888 629-2137) - the call is FREE & you have nothing to lose and everything to gain.

Call DamageMAX and let us help take the sting out of your auto accident & put some cash in your pocket!

Potential DamageMAX.com Customer - Question for the Doctor

Question

Totaled by Teenage Driver: My 16 year old son just wrecked my brand new Honda Accord. Luckily he was not hurt but the car is pretty rough. He hit a telephone pole head-on outside our neighborhood grocery store. The car is drivable and we were able to get it back to the house. We have not called our insurance agent yet because we are afraid of what might happen to our insurance premium. My neighbor had a similar accident and his body shop charge over $6,000. CAR-diologist, we just can't afford that repair and we can't turn in the claim to our insurer.

What is your diagnosis?

Answer

The CAR-Diologist: Your situation is not as bad as your think. After looking at the pictures you sent me, I believe it would be worthwhile for you to sell your car "AS-IS". While it may cost you $6,000 or more to repair your Accord, DamageMAX buys thousands of damaged cars and is able to take advantage of volume discounts with wrecker services and body shops. We pass this savings on to you by paying the most for your wrecked car. And pickup is always free!

You just wrecked your vehicle and it's been towed from the accident scene. No injuries, thank heavens.

What do you do next?

• Call insurance company – report accident

• Start weighing options on repair or replacement of wrecked vehicle
• Wait…

#4 is what you better get used to because you are no longer in control of your destiny. Your insurance adjuster will decide if your car will be repaired or totaled. There's a formula, there are legal guidelines and corporate policies, none of which are your concern. You may not even get an explanation as to how things are decided or calculated and you may not even be able to choose your own repair shop (without some resistance anyway).

You just wait…

Why wait? Contact DamageMAX and get a free price quote on your wrecked vehicle now! Knowledge is power and if you can sell your wrecked vehicle "as-is", having that information before you get the call from your insurance adjuster will be your advantage.

Industry Secret #2

"State Minimum Coverage"

"Legal for Less"

"Liability Only"

You stretch to make ends meet… you're a great driver, why pay for all that extra insurance? You've never even filed an insurance claim before...

Until now! Just when you think nothing else could go wrong, you’re in an accident. You looked down for one second to see who texted you - and now your car is wrecked.

You call your insurer hoping for help - but they can't - you were at fault and you are not carrying collision or comprehensive coverage. You can't even get reimbursed for a rental until you sort things out. Now your car won't move and you can't afford to repair it. How are you getting to work tomorrow? What should you do with your wrecked car?

If you are lucky, your insurance company already has a custom referral program with DamageMAX and we will buy your total loss car. If not, don't despair - DamageMAX is now open to the public. DamageMAX buys wrecked cars, all over the USA.

If you wrecked your car and simply just don't feel comfortable driving the car again, please consider selling your wrecked car to DamageMAX. DamageMAX will buy your wreck “AS-IS"!

"Owner retained" is a term you've probably never heard. Of the 4 million vehicles totaled every year in the United States, 1 million are "retained" by the "owner". They choose to actually keep the wrecked car rather than sending it to the scrap heap. Why? The owner knows the car better than the insurance company and thinks it can be either repaired or sold at a profit.

If the owner is automotive savvy, this is often the case!

Below is a typical situation:

• You've been in a car accident
• The insurance adjuster estimates damage of $8,500
• Your vehicle's pre-crash value (ACV) is $10,000
• Your state has an 80% damage threshold for declaring vehicle a total loss
• At 85% ($8,500/$10,000), your vehicle is declared a total loss by your insurer
• The insurance company estimates your vehicle is worth $500 post-crash (salvage value)

You have 2 options:

• Take the $10,000 less your deductible ($1,000) and pass title to your insurer
• Take the $10,000 less your deductible ($1,000) and salvage value ($500) and keep your car (with a salvage title)

In the second option, you are essentially taking the settlement and buying your damaged car from the insurance company. You may choose to repair the car or sell it. If you choose to sell it, DamageMAX will buy it - you pocket the profit!

How does DamageMAX pay you more for your owner retained vehicle than your insurer? Your insurer wants to settle the claim quickly and usually discounts your "owner retained" vehicle to encourage you to settle. This can be your advantage - contact DamageMAX to find out how much we will pay for your "owner retained" vehicle.
