Services
Three services, sold separately or together. What a vehicle stores depends on its year, make and model, so we tell you what is retrievable before you commit.
The event data recorder in the airbag control module stores the seconds before a crash. We retrieve and preserve it with the Bosch Crash Data Retrieval system, then report what it shows.
Infotainment and telematics units log what the car and its connected phones were doing. We extract that record with Berla vehicle forensics tools.
A documented, photographed inspection of the vehicle and its damage, completed while the evidence still exists.
All Crash Data retrieves, analyzes and documents. Opinions on speed, causation and fault, and testimony, come from our parent firm, Kauderer & Associates. Their reconstructionists work from the data we already collected, so nothing is gathered twice.
For claims
Most liability disputes turn on speed, braking and how hard the impact was. Many vehicles recorded all three.
Recorded speed, throttle and brake status for the seconds before impact, set beside each driver's account.
The recorder's change in velocity (ΔV) is the vehicle's own measure of how severe the impact was.
When the vehicle is sold or crushed, its data goes with it. We collect first so the file keeps the evidence.
Single-vehicle and late-night losses where the only account is the driver's. Speed, braking and belt use may be on record.
For SIU
A staged or caused collision still has to be driven in a real car, and the car keeps notes.
Hard braking with nothing ahead, or acceleration into the impact, shows up in the pre-crash record.
Seat belt switch status and passenger airbag state can indicate whether the seats claimed as occupied actually were.
Infotainment systems can hold location history, paired phones and time-stamped events when the place, the timeline or the driver is in question.
Some recorders store more than one event. An earlier impact on the module can point to prior damage presented as new.
Using EDR and infotainment data to break staged-collision claims. A session for your investigators, taught by the people who retrieve the data.
How it works
Complete the online form with the claim number, the vehicle and where it is sitting.
We tell you what can be retrieved from that vehicle and the flat fee, before any work starts.
A technician retrieves the data and documents the vehicle where it sits, whether that is a tow yard, a body shop or a salvage pool.
You receive the data report and photographs. If the claim needs a reconstruction opinion, Kauderer & Associates works from the same data.
Send a single assignment when a claim calls for it, or set up a carrier program with agreed pricing and one intake process for your whole unit.
