Total loss undervaluation lawsuit filed against State Farm in North Carolina

Total Loss Undervaluation Lawsuit Filed Against State Farm in North Carolina

A class action lawsuit has been filed against State Farm in North Carolina, alleging the insurance company undervalued total losses.

A similar complaint has been filed in six other states, with plaintiff Craig Brewer claiming State Farm reduced his total loss payout by 5.5% due to an alleged reduction in the retail cost of comparable vehicles.

The suit alleges that for each class member, State Farm reduced total loss payouts by 4-9%.

[T]he plaintiff only contests State Farm’s blanket reduction of the retail cost of comparable vehicles on behalf of himself and the class. Therefore, none of the total loss vehicles have to be revalued.
