More details to this question:
When I spoke to the claims adjuster he said the car was at the scrap junk yard. We never settled on the claim or signed the vehicle over to the insurance company. We would like our van fixed and/or replaced. Do we have any rights. They totaled the van but the value was set to low and is unacceptable.

If van was totaled, your fight is over value not repair. You may need to sue the insurance company for damages but you will have to show its worth more than they say.
