    Status:
    Answered
    In July 23 my son, ******, misjudged a curve and slid across the roadway and rolled our 01 Dodge PU onto its side. We called for a tow filed a claim. I did not know actual damage to the rig would be less than our deductible. I was contacted by a major claims adjuster who insisted, because of a Rollover the vehicle would be totaled. I explained the truck was still drivable & damage appeared minimal. The adjuster agreed to send an appraiser to our home to have a look. The appraiser spent less than 3 minutes taking photos. The Adjuster concluded the three small dents on the trucks right side were repairable, but the under-carriage damage must certainly still warrant a Total. I explained the only visible under carriage damage was the right front spring had slid from its base. The adjuster told me there were no pictures of the underside, so I for re-appraisal. I was told there were no re-inspections. I asked to simply finish the 1st. A settlement for total loss, was issued. I accepted after talking to a customer care agent. I expressed my concern with being able to insure a Reconstructed Title Vehicle. The agent told me reconstructed title vehicles are frequently insured, on a case-by-case basis. I felt confident there would be no problem, based on that conversation. ************ re-seated the spring & replaced a few worn parts but concluded there was no other damage from the crash. The truck went an alignment shop. No damage was discovered. Oregon DMV inspected & retitled the truck. Less than $500 was spent to repair this truck back to better than it was before the crash. We've put ******** into this rig with plans for its future. It' needs to be insured with ***************** The truck should never have been totaled. A claims adjuster took advantage of a client without experience in such matters. Now, an underwriting algorithm deems this rig uninsurable. That's not acceptable & the path taken to reach it unethical, incomplete, & misleading

    I had a minor accident recently that left me not able to drive my vehicle until it is repaired. I made the report on Sunday and received an email from my "adjustor" within a few hours. I called numerous times to get an update of what to do next before my car would be towed from where it was stuck. The adjustor in the email NEVER answered my calls or emailed me back. I finally called customer service and they told me that I had been assigned to a different adjustor. It would have been nice to know or have the original person answer to let me know. I was transferred by CS to my new adjustor who seemed to be nice and understanding of the situation. I come to find out from my husband that they are towing my car to a completely different state farther away to "access" the damage and they mentioned possibly totaling it out because of a radiator!?!?! I have since tried to call numerous times again and also email to get an update to why it isn't being towed to my state and what I would need to do if it is actually totaled out like if I now need to go to that state to clean it out. I am a high risk pregnancy and already stressed as h*** about the issue which this is creating a TON of additional stress and anxiety for me. ALL I WANT IS A FREAKING RESPONSE!!!!

    I spoke with our insured this afternoon and apologized for the delays and confusion around her claim. The vehicle was initially incorrectly identified as a total loss. The vehicle is repairable. *** updated her on the status of her claim, explained the next steps, and made arrangements for the repairs and rental. She thanked me for the update. The issue is resolved at this time.
