SAN RAMON, Calif., Jan. 16 /PRNewswire/ -- Audatex, a Solera company, the global leader in automotive claims processing, announced today the release of Autosource Plus, the company's new total loss valuation product designed to speed the settlement of total loss claims and to improve customer satisfaction.

Autosource and Autosource Plus valuations include state-specific enhancements and a new California specific valuation format.
