∙ 16y agoIf you haven't paid the vehicle off, then you must repair the vehicle with the insurance check. If you don't owe a bank anything, you are not required to fix the vehicle. Keep in mind, if the vehicle has unrepaired physical damage and you get in another accident the insurance company will not give you another penny. They are only required to repair the vehicle to the condition it was in prior to the accident. If it was already damaged, they won't give you a dime
It depends on if you have a lien placed on your vehicle (by you lender. If you own the car free and clear, you can take the insurance money and not repair the car, but if there is a lien on your vehicle more often than not the insurance company will make the check out to you and your bank.

Similar to auto insurance, this is a contract between a vehicle owner and the car insurance company, which binds the company to pay for all repairs done on the vehicle for a fixed length of time.

They generally will pay by check.

Insurance should. I would check with your information to see if your company can.
You need to call your insurance company to remove the vehicle from your policy. If you are getting a new vehicle, you need to add that vehicle on. If you are not getting a new vehicle, the insurance company will send you a check for whatever amount of money you had left on the policy that was not earned because you did not have the policy for the full term.
You will have to check your state law on this. If it is a no-fault state. Then your insurance will repair your vehicle and then bill the other driver's company. I am not sure of the procedure in a "fault" state. You could try contacting your insurance agent or any auto insurance agent in your state.
It depends on the insurance company and the state you live and the laws therein.
