I'm not sure where you got that information, but it's incorrect. Your insurance rates are based on the age and cost of your car, your age, your location and your driving history. The insurance companies seem to think that if you pay your bills on time you are more responsible and therefore lower risk driver. * It doesn't. As noted your driving record, age, location, type of vehicle,what the vehicle is used for (school, private business, etc.) determines insurance rates.

Can i get auto insurance after a repossession?

If you have a repossession on your record and you have purchased a new vehicle, you will have no difficulty purchasing insurance. While some states allow auto insurance providers to check the credit history of applicants to determine their auto insurance rates, not all states do this. Even states that check credit history for premium ratings cannot deny you insurance strictly because you have a repossession on your record. While your premiums will be higher in the states that use credit history, you will be able to find insurance through large name insurers. The primary concern of the insurance company is your driving record and accident history. If you have a bad record, you have a more difficult time finding insurance and you may have to insure your vehicle through a high risk insurance company.
