| Should we keep the car insurance on the car? What to do with non working car? |
|
Donate or sell for parts.
If the plates are on it you may need to insure it. Depends where you Live |
| You can remove insurance but will have to pay a $500 uninsured motorists fee to the DMV. At least in VA. |
| Call your insurance company. Some offer a policy for parked vehicles. |
| If it’s registered you should check with the DMV. |
| I don’t think you need insurance or registration for a car that is not driven on public roads. But why do you want to keep it? Just sell it online to a national junk car dealer. It takes 5 min of your time. They will give you a few hundred bucks for it and come pick it up. |
You could fix it? |
| Whether you can depends on the rules of your state. When you drop insurance, your carrier will notify the DMV. |
| You have to keep it otherwise, you will be charged a fee at DMV. It happened to my mother, I can't remember what the fee was exactly, but I just remember it was a lot and it was a big deal for my mother. She was in MD. |
Repair will cost more than the car is worth. |
I live in Virginia. |
Interesting. I have geico and live in Virginia I was unaware the carrier would rat to the dmv for a fee. |
I always thought those adverts on stop signs were a scam. Is there a reputable one? |
What’s the scam? They are taking your nonworking car, which is costing you money. |
They are required to. |
