If your vehicle was declared a total loss in Flint, Detroit, or Grand Rapids and the payout seems too low, you don’t have to accept it.

SnapClaim provides USPAP-compliant, data-driven total loss reports trusted by insurers, attorneys, and appraisers throughout Michigan to resolve valuation disputes quickly.
