[QUOTE="chuter, post: 4257648, member: 13693"] based on data from a third party vendor. There was discussion on this a few weeks ago about car manufacturers sending data to ins companies that they collect, maybe from satellite connections to vehicles. This is our spare car, 2005 scion with 200k miles, seldom use it, the mileage we estimated for it was 2500 miles a year, they want to raise to to 4750. Our documentation from service records shows 2500 is correct, and we can dispute it using that documentation, which I will. I called and asked the rep on the 800 number what third party vendor they get their data from (this car has no satellite connection and is not connected in any way). First she said they get it from annual state inspections; I told her OK doesn't do annual inspections, she went silent for 10-15 seconds, then asked if I was sure, I said yes. Then she seemed to be looking into it and decided the info cam from carfax. I went to the carfax site and you have to pay to get a report so I'm not going to do that. So, I'll dispute it, send in the documentation, it will roll around in the system for who knows how long and MAYBE if enough people do that they'll decide carfax is not a reliable source. My guess is most people will just ignore the notice that I got, not dispute it, and the system will roll on. I wonder how much AI is involved in this. [/QUOTE]
