One such hazard\nthat is commonly overlooked until it is too late is tree damage. Strong winds,\nheavy snow, and thick ice can cause a tree to uproot from the ground, and\neventually, topple over. Many people wake up in the morning to find their homes\nor structures damaged by a fallen tree. A common victim: vehicles. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">So what do you do if you wake up to find your car or truck\nunderneath a storm-stricken tree?

If you have\nthe state-minimum liability car insurance, you may not be able to make a claim.\nIf you have comprehensive insurance coverage, and the policy is in\ngood-standing before the incident, you should be covered.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Comprehensive automotive insurance coverage should cover all\ndamages done to a vehicle so long as the tree fell as a result of snow, wind,\nor other natural element. If the tree fell because you cut it down improperly,\nfor instance, it may not be covered by insurance. Although unrelated to trees,\nthis type of insurance tends to cover hail damage, as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>When a comprehensive insurance policy compensates a driver for vehicular tree damage, they provide funds to cover the cost of repairs, minus the policy deductible. If the cost of repairs exceeds the current market value of the vehicle make and model, the insurance company will deem the vehicle a total loss. Read our blog, \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cashforcarsindianapolis.com\/blog\/when-is-a-car-totaled\/ \">When is a Car Totaled?<\/a>\u201d to learn how to calculate a total loss vehicle. In the case of a total loss vehicle, the insurance company will pay to replace the car with one of equivalent make, model, and condition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h1 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Totaled Cars<\/h1>\n\n\n\n<p>If a person does not have adequate insurance coverage before\na tree falls on their car, they may not have many options for being compensated\nfor their losses. In this case, if the tree merely damages the car, the driver\ncan choose to pay, out-of-pocket, for automotive repairs. But if the damage is\ntoo extensive for repair, the driver must scrap the vehicle. Fortunately, this\nwill put some cash in their pocket!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>How to Sell a Totaled Car<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignright\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"142\" src=\"https:\/\/www.cashforcarsindianapolis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/banner2-Copy-300x142.jpg\" alt=\"Sell a Junk Vehicle 317-450-3721\" class=\"wp-image-351\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.cashforcarsindianapolis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/banner2-Copy-300x142.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.cashforcarsindianapolis.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/04\/banner2-Copy.jpg 422w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><figcaption>Sell a Junk Vehicle 317-450-3721<\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Call our friendly Indianapolis junk car buyers at 317-450-3721<\/strong> to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cashforcarsindianapolis.com\">sell a totaled car<\/a> in Indiana.
