I don't think the potential client can avoid the insurance premium
surcharge consequences if it was her fault. The lender's finance
agreement likely has a clause securing the rights to any insurance
proceeds on the vehicle and it would also have required it be named as
an additional insured on the policy. The lender is going make the
claim on the policy if the insured does not make the claim and
surrenders the car. I assume the potential client was at fault
becuase otherwise the deductible would not apply if the other driver
had insurance and it was the other driver's fault.

Actually, it is better if the insurer does not pay on the loss
because then it won't be chargeable, in terms of premium surcharge to
the debtor, if the debtor was held at fault.

SUBJECT: [cdcbaa] Debtor Crashed Car She Wishes to Surrender Right
Before Filing
Client gets into a car accident on a vehicle that she wants to
surrender before filing chapter 7. She files claim with her insurance
carrier. She wants to know if she should turn the car into the body
shop and pay the $500 deductible to get the car repaired before she
surrenders it.
My first instinct is no why get the car fixed when she is going
to surrender it?
However, I just wanted to double check and make sure there wont
be any problems with her insurance company as a result. Any input?
Thank you,

She should not spend a dime. Tell the lender now in writing that she
surrenders the vehicle to the lender. Provide all the insurance info
in the letter and let the lender deal with the insurance company and
pay the deductible.
