It gets "gray" when it's something that flies off of another vehicle. Once that item touches the road, things change and it becomes a collision claim. That's why I stated what I did earlier about being sure to describe the issue as an item that came off of another vehicle and directly struck your vehicle. Otherwise, it's collision and you have to have the other driver's information for subro or you're going to eat it.

You're likely familiar with the phrase "What the bold print giveth, the fine print taketh away."

Yes, the insurance policy gives you the world while exclusions take it away piece by piece. That's why you never shop for insurance by price alone. You must read the policy and understand what has happened by the time you get to the end. If you find it incomprehensible, you must find someone you trust to explain it to you. A small savings in premium will be forgotten when there's an uncovered claim. Insurance policies are written by attorneys and are confusing by design.

Policies are written by attorneys, but they aren't specifically "confusing by design." When laws were first being written, the lawmakers were paid by the word. This is why legal language, to this day, is still heavily reliant on latin (because we can't easily translate the larger components of laws although individual words and phrases can be done one at a time) and are ridiculously lengthy. One other side effect of making these policies unnecessarily wordy is that they are open to interpretation. And since most courts will side with the consumer for reasonable claims, all that is necessary to get many claims covered is to speak with the agents calmly and provide data that refutes their decision. In CT, all I have to do is utter the phrase "I have attempted to negotiate with you in good faith and you have failed to do the same - I will be referring this to the office of the Insurance Commissioner for review" and things change pretty quickly. Of course, I do have to have been actually attempting to negotiate in good faith. Insurance companies will do almost anything to avoid arbitration when a client has a reasonable claim. Arbitration outcomes that rule against them are huge negative marks on their records. |

Seen the car today. It's all painted but still apart. They blended the front fender perfectly. The bumper paint is also very good. Just waiting for the rubber piece under the front to come in and replace. Hopefully get it back tomorrow. Thanks for all of your great comments!!! Means a lot to a life long car guy!!!!!

Might be a good time to consider some PPF on the front end.

Exactly. I did have the car ceramic coated when I first got it. I called the guy and he said I had to wait 30 days.
