This is exactly what happened to me. I had a metal shed blow into my car for $2000 worth of damage. I filed an insurance claim. I went to trade my car. The application asked "Has an insurance claim been filed on this vehicle?"
I said "yes." The offer went from $24000 to $21000 because of the insurance claim.
