Regardless of who the agent is that actually repossesses a vehicle the responsibility will remain with the agency that actually accomplished the repossession, however, the Creditor is ultimately responsible for the actions of the agents that they assign an account to. The assigning agency, if they had no actual part in the repossession will probably not be responsible.

Towing driver damaged car repossessing it so who is responsible?

I’ve actually dealt with something similar around Towing Berala, so I can share what I learned. If a towing driver damages your car while repossessing it, the responsibility usually falls on the towing company or their insurance, not you. Repossession has to be done properly and without causing unnecessary damage. If scratches, dents, or bigger issues show up during the tow, you can file a claim against the towing company. They’re required to carry insurance for exactly these situations. That being said, you’ll want to document everything – photos, videos, and even witness accounts if possible. It helps when dealing with the company or if you need to take it further legally. In short, the towing company handling the Towing Berala job is responsible for any damage caused during the repossession, not the car owner.


Do you have to keep insurance on a repossessed car in Florida?

Yes, in Florida, if your car has been repossessed, you are still typically required to maintain insurance coverage on it until it is sold or returned to the lender. This is because you remain financially responsible for the vehicle, and having insurance helps protect against potential damages or liabilities. If you fail to maintain coverage, you could be held liable for any damages that occur during the repossession process. Always check with your lender for specific requirements regarding insurance.
