     Consumer's Auto Detective assists the consumer after the collision.  By providing information in the insurance claim process we provide help and tips to the consumer that will aid in the auto body repair experience. 

 Inspections for safety, function, quality of repair and diminished value protect the consumer 

and help him/her in the insurance claims process or in the purchase or pre purchase  of a used car or truck.  If the collision damaged  vehicle is not repairable, but becomes a total loss, Consumers' Auto Detective will provide the consumer with fair evaluations to aid in the fair  settlement of their claim.
