I don't know if it would have been better for them NOT to have found the car or not! Sounds like you will get the same amount regardless of if the car was gone or not. Thats horrible and sad to see a Z get torn apart like that.

My eclipse was stolen in front of my house in broad daylight a few years ago, 2 weeks after my mom took full-coverage off of it, so it was a lost cause and I got nothing for it at all.

At least you HAVE coverage for something!

Good luck on everything with this whole ordeal

I assume that you've been in constant communication with them. What did they say (about this taking so long to settle)?

Good luck, man.

If we are talking 3:00 am, they had plenty of time to do this without being spotted.

Of course this is speculation...
or it was simply flat bedded away?


I saw a repo guy take a car in less than a minute.

I work with insurance companies, since my company handles services from car parts to medical bills. Insurance companies don't want to cover aftermarket parts. I know some that will rack up your premium if they know you have them on. Its like a higher risk of theft. Some won't even offer you insurance.

One of my friends had his car stolen last year. They investigated to the fullest extent, to make sure it wasn't fraud. He didn't get any money back for like 4 months.
