Is collision insurance mandatory on financed auto that's nearly paid off?

Answer 1

most lein holders require coll and comp coverage to protect their (the are co-owners in effect of this vehicle should you default on the loan they don't want to try and sell a wrecked car) vehicle.. if you don't have it and prove it to them that you do have coverage, they will put this coverage on the vehicle themselves (and charge you) typcially at a much higher rate, than you can buy it for, it would be good idea to put it on the vehicle yourself until it is paid off.....
