Subject: insurance says car is totalled.
on wednesday morning, another driver decided to illegally
turn left in front of me, doing great damage to my car
(Honda Civic).
i have yet to pay off the car, and the body shop says the
insurance company wants to total the car. i haven't
been able to get in touch with the person handling my claim,
so i checked on some things:
1) my payout is $3700.00
2) Blue Book retail is $5650.00
3) loan value is $4450.00
4) trade-in value is $4000.00
could anyone give me any advice on what i should/could do
if the insurance company does not give me a reasonable
amount for the loss of the car.
thanks,
james baker
