Some of you who think an accident doesn't affect your resale value are mistaken. I learned this the hard way a few months ago when I went to trade in my 2012 Ram that had been rear ended a year before. It was on the Carfax report and cost me at least $2,500 off trade in value. I had $4000 in damage to my truck. Accidents happen. I wasn't aware of filing a diminishing value claim until reading this post but wondered about why there wasn't something to compensate us for that loss of value when its not our own fault.
