What will Geico do?

I purchaes a 2007 Altima in August, and Geico has insured it. It just has 4,000 miles on it. During the storms in the South quicker this week, the Altima was totaled. Since my car individual had 4,000 miles on it and is less than partly a year old, what will Geico do? Give me a brand new vehicle? It seems like that would single be fair.

Too much motor insurance?

Think again. Your car isn't brand new -- it's an '07 near 4K miles. GEICO is only obligated to pay you the ACV (actual bread value) of your car at the time of the loss. Hopefully you don't owe more than it's worth and hopefully you got a large amount on it.

If it was truly totaled they will give you the attraction of the car, not a new coup¨¦.

Answers:    Your car depreciates surrounded by value as soon as you drive it off the lot. They will one and only give you the fair open market value of your vehicle. If you financed your car and you owe more than what they bestow you for it, you are still going to be responsible for the difference.

How much are the insurance for first...


Your kidding, right? Assuming you have full coverage insurance, the usual scenario with a new and financed motor, they will cover the fair market pro, adjusted for condition, of your car, smaller amount your deductible amount. That money will go to the company that has financed your coup¨¦. It will not be the pay off price, or the amount to buy a latest car. Once they have that, they will subtract that amount from what you owe. You will be responsible for any set off, unless of course you have GAP insurance. If you do, your GAP insurance will take-home pay that difference and you will owe nothing, and have nought.

You will not get a new motor...
If the car is indeed a total loss, which for GEICO I believe means the disfavour meets or exceeds 70% of the vehicle's value...you will receive the Actual Cash Value smaller quantity your comprehensive deductible. The ACV is fair market pro (not bluebook or the remainder of your loan), less depreciation. Basically they have a look at what cars contained by your area that are comparable are selling for and add/subtract according to your specific vehicle.

If you are financed, the check will be issued directly to your lender or as a two-part check to both you and the lender.
If you are upside-down on your loan, and the ACV doesn't cover what you owe...you will owe the difference to your lender.
