  4. This car hauler did exist at one time, but doesn’t anymore.

  5. Typical issues • Car arrives with dirty interior or exterior • Antenna missing • Windshield chip or crack • Paint chips • Mechanical issues • Dents • Scratches

  6. The RAR Process • Make initial call to customer within 4 hours of damage notification • Claim form sent to customer • Receive completed claim form • Assign Auto Damage Appraiser (ADA) • Receive ADA report • Offer letter sent to customer with release/denial sent • Cash out • Pay body shop directly • Receive signed release • Issue check

  7. Inspection Reports Pickup and delivery reports help determine what damage is pre-existing and what occurred during transport. They also help pinpoint when the damage occurred along the route and which carrier is responsible.

  8. Reasons for Denial • Paint chips and windshield chips or cracks from road debris are unavoidable on an open carrier. This type of damage is possible during normal, everyday driving. • Damage is marked as pre-existing on origin inspection. • Damage is not marked on delivery inspection and reported more than 24 hours after delivery. • Damage is mechanical in nature and cannot be determined to be transit related by a mechanic or technician. • Damage is to the undercarriage or interior of a vehicle, which is not inspected by the drivers. • Pre-existing damage (windshield chip) made larger by transport.

  9. Things to Remember • Transferees should perform detailed inspections with the driver at pick up and delivery, and make a note of any exceptions. • Claims for new damages not noted on delivery paperwork must be reported within 24 hours of delivery.
