There are 2 types of claims that can be made. Collision and Comprehensive.
Commonly filed claims that do Not affect the insurance premiums per North Carolina state law:
Collision-type Claims: Vehicle was parked when damaged (even if you didn’t catch the person who hit it) and if someone does a hit-and-run against you.
Comprehensive-type Claims: Items falling off another vehicle and hitting your vehicle, Animal collisions, Vandalism, Acts of Nature (pinecone falls and damages vehicle, water, hail, fire), Theft, etc.
For almost everybody (excluding businesses and people with very rare high-risk insurance policies, etc.) the only way an insurance claim can affect your insurance rates for policies written in North Carolina are if BOTH of these requirements are met.
• A collision-type claim (so comprehensive claims automatically don’t affect insurance rates)
• that is at least 51% or more your fault
So if any of those requirements are not satisfied, for almost every single situation, your rates will not be affected.
See Department of Insurance website for proof Here.
Per North Carolina state law (NCGS 58-36-65 and 58-36-75) insurance rate increases are as follows:

North Carolina General Stature states, “(i) the claimant is under no obligation to use the (insurance) recommended repair service, (ii) the claimant may use the repair service of the claimant’s choice.”
You have the right to have any body shop you want to do the work on your vehicle (North Carolina General Statute 58-3-180). Insurance companies get a discount when you go to one of their partner shops, and in return they push customers to those shops to save money. Sometimes the insurance companies can really pressure you from what we’ve seen.
Just remember you get to pick where you want your vehicle repaired in North Carolina.
