Who is an automotive appraiser?
A car appraiser is a person who is an expert in the field of vehicles and has the appropriate qualifications in this regard. The services of an independent car appraiser are used when you want to check that the insurance companies have honestly fulfilled their obligations when assessing the damage. They are certified professionals, so using the additional help of an expert when negotiating the cost estimate of an insurance company may be associated with a certain expense, but in most situations it is worth opting for such services, because the final amount of the insurance may turn out to be much higher.
How can you become an automotive appraiser?
Regardless of whether you intend to join the ranks of these experts or use the services of an appraiser, it is definitely worth getting acquainted with the criteria that such a person must meet. In order to be included in the list of car experts prepared by the Ministry of Infrastructure, certain conditions must be met. It should also be noted that the list is constantly updated.
To qualify for entry on the list, a person must:
- have a university graduation certificate,
- have at least 5 years of experience in the field of automotive,
- not be punished by a court judgment for an intentional crime,
- hold a driving license of categories A, B and C1 or C,
- undergo the certification of experts issued by a body accredited in the Polish accreditation system,
- enter your personal data and select the declaration “I consent to the processing of personal data”.
The website of the Ministry of Infrastructure provides access to the personal data of experts, constituting a knowledge center about available specialists. It is in the certification center that the appraisers should be looked for in order to confirm the qualifications of the selected car appraiser. These experts can work independently and are often hired by insurance companies, car repair shops, vehicle manufacturers and even courts.
What does a car appraiser do?
The use of appraisers’ services is available to anyone who wants to find out whether the repair cost estimates prepared by the insurance company are adequate to the actual damage suffered by the driver. In other words, the main task of such an independent expert is to actually evaluate the value of the vehicle in relation to the costs incurred. This is a potentially advantageous service if you have opted for third party liability insurance, are using motor own damage insurance or have opted for complete OCA insurance. In most cases, the perpetrator’s liability should cover most of the expenses related to the accident.
In order to better understand what an appraiser does, it is worth taking a closer look at their individual competencies. You can list here:
- Motor Vehicle Valuation – Overall vehicle valuation based on each of its aspects.
- Technical opinions of vehicles – professional determination of the technical condition of the vehicle and all its components.
- Reconstruction of the course of accidents and collisions – professional, practical reconstruction of the course of an accident is a standard when collecting materials for negotiation with the insurer.
- Computer simulations and animations – Reproducing a simulated traffic accident is one of the most convincing pieces of evidence in an insurer’s investigation.
- Valuation of damages and repair costs – the liquidation of damages is always associated with certain expenses, and a professional analysis of the extent of the damage allows you to better determine the potential expenses related to their repair.
- Vintage Vehicle Valuation – Some vintage vehicles may have special historical or collector’s value that goes beyond standard car valuation methods.
- Preparation of charges and comments to the opinions of Court Experts – preparation of official documentation needed to apply for better compensation.
It must be remembered that this work is based on a certain pattern. The scheme of car appraiser services begins with the solution of formal issues. You will need templates of documents related to the vehicle, as well as photos and other materials showing the scale of damage to the car – they are important in determining the circumstances of the accident and their potential impact on the condition of the car. The automotive expertise includes specialist knowledge of individual vehicle components, so the expert will be able to identify even those damages that are not visible at first glance, and are located in the car’s internal systems.
The role of an expert is not limited to the automotive specialty here. It is worth remembering that if you want to increase the amount of compensation, you must negotiate with the insurer, and relevant documents will be necessary in these. The car appraiser should be asked to issue documents showing the value of the vehicle before and after the accident. The insurance company is not, however, obliged to recognize such an appraisal – if it still does not agree with its decision, the only solution is to go to court. The conclusion is obvious – if you suspect that your insurer did not treat you fairly, report the damage to the appraiser.
In particular, the Institute carries out opinions for courts, prosecutor’s offices and other procedural bodies from all over Poland (e.g. the Polish Motor Association), as well as for private individuals and companies.
INSTITUTE has access to specialized research laboratories and uses modern computer programs useful in developing opinions (e.g. V-SIM, CYBORG IDEA PLAN, INFO-EKSPERT, AUDATEX, EUROTAX GLASS’s).
