QUESTION
Can I be forced into accepting my car after repairs?
Asked on Feb 14th, 2017 on Products Liability - Florida
More details to this question:
My car was initially estimated at 90% damaged and was supposedly totaled out, however after being reviewed two more times, by insurance company techs, it was lowered to 68%. I do not feel safe in this car and insurance company supposedly paid $9200.+ for repairs, yet valued car at $10,600. Does this sound reasonable when in fact I know owe just under $7,000.

There is something missing here as it is RARE that an insurer will reduce a previously totaled car to 68% from 90% damage to value on its own. This almost always only occurs when the INSURED doesnt want the car totaled for some financial reason or other. YOu may need to retain a lawyer at this point to address this with the inusrance carrier assuming its YOUR company. If its a third party company - it get much more complicated.
