Yesterday, my 1993 GMC Sonoma was parked outside my friend's house and her daughter backed into it causing a huge dent in the side panel of the truck bed. My husband had already backed into something recently causing the tailgate to sustain damage, didn't fix it and it's starting to rust.
So, the daughter gave me her insurance details and now I'm worried that her insurance company (State Farm) will want to write the truck off as totaled because of it's age. I don't want to lose the truck so obviously, I would say no. My husband said if he doesn't get offered what we owe on the truck (more than it's worth so no chance), he will sue the girl for the difference (Ha). I am assuming that if he rejects the insurance company's offer he would be relieving the girl of any obligation to pay for the damage. Plus, it's not her fault we got a crappy deal on the finance of the truck in the first place.
Why have insurance if people can refuse to deal with them and give YOU a bill?
He's wrong, isn't he? He can't reject the insurance co. and sue the girl?
