Auto Insurance Claims: Salvage Retention, total loss auto, salvage retention


Question
I live in Georgia.  My car is a total loss.  My insurance will not let me keep the salvage if though I'm willing to pay for it.  Is this legal.  Don't they have to let me car.

Answer
You are right, they can't take your car away. However they can make a deduction for salvage value. The trick is to make them deduct the least amount for the salvage. Its a very tricky game, but also very simple once you know the technique. There is a very good detailed section on this technique in the eBook "Total Loss Auto Advice for Insureds" at www.UClaim.com . The EBook is $25.00, but has a money back guarantee and a 20 minute free consultation about your claim with the author, Ron Cercone.
