I'm unsure if you mean the other carrier is denying liability, or they've totaled your car and are refusing to repair it.

If they're denying liability, and you believe the other driver is at-fault, you have a couple of options. One, you can go through your own carrier (if you have full coverage), and they will complete their investigation and probably subrogate (ie, ask for their money back). If you don't have full coverage, and your carrier can't help you, you'll likely need to initiate a small claims action in court.

If the at-fault carrier has totaled your vehicle, but you're wanting it repaired instead, keep in mind that any insurance carrier will only pay you up to the actual-cash-value of the vehicle. If the repairs and related expenses (rental, supplements, etc.) get to a certain percentage of the actual-cash-value, almost any insurance carrier will total the vehicle.

Why is auto insurance mandatory?

Driving is considered a privilege and not a right. Because it is a privilege drivers are required to prove they are financially responsible. Mandatory auto insurance is proof that drivers are financially responsible to cover damages or injuries in the event of an accident. Because most drivers cannot reasonably pay for the cost of repairs and medical bills they cause in an at fault accident, states require auto insurance to protect both third party drivers and the policyholder.

Report the accident to your insurance company. If this was a single car accident - meaning yours- your insurance will have to pay for the repairs minus your deductible. If another party caused the accident you need to turn their insurance information over to your company and they will take it from there.

How does car insurance work after an accident?

The way car insurance works after an accident is that a report must be made to the insurance company. They will review it and then decide what you new insurance cost will be. Answer: Accidents need to be reported to your insurance company as soon as possible whether you or someone else caused the accident. If police were called to the scene then you must obtain a copy of the police report as well to be sent to your insurance company. All of this if you plan to file the insurance claim through your or the other drivers insurance. Some have accidents but the repairs are so minor that they pay out of pocket rather than getting the insurance companies involved.
