Replying to: teacher8 (Dec 15, 2007 6:36 am) If you think it's worth $260 per year for the coverage, keep the coverage. The insurer will pay if it's damaged again. |

Replying to: teacher8 (Dec 14, 2007 8:50 pm) I think you need to explain the situation completely to the new insurance company and see what they say. No need to pay them if they are going to deny any future claims based on the history - which they will discover in the event of a claim (if not sooner) whether or not it is disclosed up front. Let us know what you find out! |

I was recently in an accident, I ran into a curb that was about 5-8 inches above the ground, and it pushed back the wheel of my sunfire, and in doing so it pushed the fender back just enough to make the door nearly impossible to open. So my question is do you think there is enough reason to deem my car Totaled btw its a 95 sunfire

Replying to: tybo2 (Dec 20, 2007 8:38 pm) I don't think so. Essentially, the criterion for "totalling" a vehicle is that the cost of repair has to be comparable to its replacement cost. tidester, host SUVs and Smart Shopper |

Replying to: tybo2 (Dec 20, 2007 8:38 pm)  How many miles do you have on it? I can imagine that there are some '95 Sunfires that might only be worth $500. Which begs another question? You are still carrying collision on a '95 Sunfire? Regards, kyfdx visiting host |

Replying to: tybo2 (Dec 20, 2007 8:38 pm) Yes The cost of the front suspension will probably be more then the car is worth |

Yesterday I signed a contract on a vehicle but did not take dilivery of that vehicle. Am I still obligated to the contract if I change my mind?
