How is your day…
I’m super frustrated and could really use some help.
I got into a minor car accident in Florida during the first week of May 2024. It was the other driver’s fault, so I filed a claim with their insurance to cover the repairs. I didn’t get the first check until mid-July, and then I dropped my car off at the dealership on July 22nd. They finished the repairs after 3 weeks, but now they’re saying they can’t give me my car back until they get another $1600 for extra damages.
We’ve been chasing the insurance company for weeks, and it was only after my lawyer got involved that they finally sent the second check. But, after 5 weeks of waiting, I found out they only sent $900of the $1600 I need. Now, after 6 weeks without my car, the dealership is telling me I need to pay the remaining $700 myself, which I just can’t do.
I’ve missed work because I don’t have a rental or loaner car, and I really don’t want to wait another 2 weeks, which would make it 2 months without my car. The adjuster we’re dealing with never answers or returns calls.
Does anyone have any advice on what I should do next? I’m at my breaking point and would really appreciate any tips.
Iam looking up for ur response,
