Hey folks, I had a minor accident car got hit while it was parked, some damage to the fender long story short I went to body shop to do the estimate and of course insurance decide to total it over a fender dent !
Car is not new however low mileage 80k km bmw 328xi 2011 all maintenance was done
So if I withdraw the claim insurance confirmed won’t trigger total loss to government (ministry of transportation ) however the manager said in the email: You also have the option to withdraw your claim. In that case, the ministry of transportation will not be advised. However, since an appraisal has already been completed, there will remain a record indicating that the vehicle was evaluated and identified as potentially a total loss.

that accident happened on January 13 it’s been few month back and forth with them, I checked carfax yesterday showing 0 record

If I close the claim will a carfax show in the upcoming months

Or should I take the their low ball offer, or go arbitration ?

If I withdraw the claim will carfax still clean?
