Scania P400 Hook Lift Truck Case Study

A thorough investigation can often uncover critical details that significantly affect the outcome of a claim.

This case study focuses on a claim involving a recently purchased Scania P400 Hook Lift Truck in Western Australia, valued at approximately $150,000.00.

The Incident

We received a claim on this unit, where the preliminary repair cost submitted by the OEM supplier was over $100,000.00.

The insured was uncertain about the cause of the damage but suspected operator error, however the operator was no longer with the business. The insured had purchased the unit less than six months earlier.

Our Findings

A comprehensive inspection with an ARC Assessing Equipment Specialist

Following our comprehensive inspection and investigation of all aspects of the claim and damage, we provided evidence showing that the unit had sustained pre-existing damage prior to the insured's purchase.

This enabled the insured to reclaim their costs in full.

The Result

The outcome was a zero dollar cost to the insured and a zero dollar cost to the insurer with over $100,000.00 saved.
