FAQ: Can they have to make me keep my car?

Q: My car was a total loss. Can they make me keep my car?

A: It depends. Sorry, I wish I had a definitive answer for you.

If it is the other person's insurance, then they can deduct the salvage value and make you keep it. They have to tell you where they got the quote from and if you cannot sell it for that price, they owe you the difference.

If it is your insurance company, then they will take the car for you.
