Sure, if you own the car. That means you do not make any payments to someone else. If you make payments, then you don't "own" the car outright, and the money will generally have to be used to pay for the repair or to pay the car off.

Can you keep house insurance money instead of fixing a damaged floor?

Its your $$$ now !!! you can do with it what you want. * If the home is not still under a mortgage contract the homeowner is not obligated to use insurance funds for repairs of the property. However, if repairs are not done the insurance provider can refuse any claim if the flooring or adjoining structure is damaged further. If the home is still mortgaged repairs must be made as the lender would have to sign the insurance check as well as the homeowner/borrower. All mortgage contracts stipulate that the property must be kept in the same or better condition as it was when the property was purchased and lending agreement made. You could BUT that would be called insurance fraud... Lis@
