I had a pretty serious wreck in my 2008 Dodge Durango which has now been repaired—about $9,000 in damages including three wheels at an odd angle and cosmetic damage and who knows what underneath the car
My question is this: I know CarFax and maybe some other reporting services keep track of wrecked cars. When I am ready to sell the car, will the CarFax report show this wreck and will it reduce the amount of trade in or resale value?

| Ray, yes it will hurt, NO DOUBT about it. The more damage the worse it will hurt. If the wreck wasn't your fault, we need to go after a Diminished Value claim. Call Kirk Kyler at http://www.diminishedvalueoftexas.com and he'll take great care of you!
