The site presents a Manitoba-focused tool for comparing an insurer’s vehicle valuation with listings and producing a claim-support PDF.

Landing page captured for the 2026-10-03 issue.
For
Manitoba drivers disputing total-loss vehicle valuations
Worth noticing
Its sample case marks a 4¢-per-kilometre mileage adjustment accepted and a −2% negotiation adjustment disputed.

Field notes

The described flow uses NHTSA’s vPIC for VIN decoding, then asks the user to confirm details the decoder may not provide, including trim or transmission. In the displayed sample, four comparables support a value of $34,250 against an insurer offer of $28,008; a body-style or transmission mismatch is excluded. Those figures appear as an example on the homepage, not as an independently verified claim.
