IF you plan on getting it back, dont drop it. If you're NOT getting it back, drop ASAP. The lender has coverage.

Good answer.

If you can't afford to get the car back, drop the insurance. You should not have coverage on the vehicle that is not longer in your possession. Let the lender assume the responsibility. Why pay for something you don't have anymore?

When your car is about to get repossessed do you still need to have car insurance on it or can you just take the vehicle off of your insurance policy?

Daleann, take the car to the lender, get a reciept for the car, then drop the ins. IF it got stolen while in your possession(before repo) your LOSS would be much greater without ins. aS LONG AS THE CAR IS STILL IN YOUR POSSESSION, KEEP THE INSURANCE. ONCE THE CAR IS GONE, DROP THE INSURANCE. iT WILL BE DONE AS SOON AS YOU HANG UP WITH YOUR INSURANCE CARRIER.

Can my husband and i who have auto ins in fl would like to change ownership to daughter wand keep the car under our policy?

It should be fine as long as your insurance covers drivers not listed on your insurance. You may have to put her name on your insurance. It also depends where she is going to live. I think as long as you put her name on the insurance, it will be fine no matter where it is from.
