NO, An insurer or the vehicle owner is not liable for damges caused by a vehicle thief while in the commission of criminal auto theft. The Insurer would not consider this as permissive use.
The penalty for not having liability insurance varies by state, but common consequences include fines, license suspension, and vehicle impoundment. It is illegal to drive without liability insurance in most states, so it is important to have coverage to avoid these penalties.
His liability insurance on his car should transfer to the vehicle that he is driving.
Certainly, liability insurance has nothing to do with who owns the vehicle. It deals with protecting the owner of the vehicle if sued as a result of an accident. Collision and theft protect the owner of the vehicle from loss.
Unfortunately, there is nothing you can do with your insurance company. If you only have liability insurance, they do not pay anything to have your vehicle replaced.
Liability Insurance and the Stolen VehicleNo, Liability Insurance provides coverage for damages or injuries that we cause to others. It does not provide coverage for our own vehicle damages or theft.
No, liability insurance is when there are injuries involved. If you are injured in an accident when someone else is driving your car, your liability insurance would cover your medical costs. Comprehensive and collision insurance on the car you were driving should pay for damages to the vehicle.
Comprehensive insurance covers theft. Liability & Collision do not.

Yes
You must have comprehensive coverage in order to recover on a claim from your insurance company if your vehicle is stolen. Liability only is just that, liability for your legal liability for damage or injuries to others.
No, it does not. That is why there are different policies called "home insurance" and "vehicle insurance".(The answer above is not entirely true. The homeowner insurance "liability portion" may pay for the vehicle damage as long as there is not an animal liability exclusion)
Liability insurance only covers damage you did to the other vehicles, property, and persons. It does not cover any damage to your vehicle or yourself. Towing your vehicle would only be required if it was damaged, so your liability insurance won't cover it (but the other person's liability might depending on the actual findings of fault).
