Found my stolen car after 3years?
So 3 years ago my Honda was stolen and insurance had payed my the money to get new car, now fast forward to today and found my old car same tags and license plate I called the police and they arrested the man and searched the vehicle… I just towed it home but but i don't know if I have to let the insurance that I had at the time know that I got my car
Your insurer owns the car. So if you fail to notify them you will be prosecuted for theft/fraud.
The insurance company owns the car since they payed you for it. You have to notify them.
It is NOT YOUR car. It belongs to the insurance company. Inform them you are now holding their property and follow instructions from them
Did you have insurance that paid for the car? If so you are not the owner of the car and they have/had the title so there's not much you can do with the car. You need to notify the insurance company and see what they want you to do.
You don't own the car. Your insurance company may be willing to sell it back to you. But if you can't make a deal, you owe them the car. And you eat the towing fee.
I suppose however, if the police let you have it, and the stolen is removed from the car, you could keep it and drove it for a long time and the insurance company would be unlikely to even know.
(Unless you tried to insure it with the same company)
You would owe back tag taxes.
If the insurance company found out about it, they could sue you and easily win.
Hell No. Finders Keepers
The vehicle is now the legal property of your insurance provider. Period.
Your insurance paid your claim so they own the recovered vehicle. Let the insurance company know and they will take possession.
- What if my salvaged title car is stolen? I bought my car back after an accident, so it has a salvaged title. It is a Honda. It runs and drives great and has for a few years since the accident. Someone tried to break in to it the other night which brings my question. What if someone did steal it? I don't have full coverage because I can't, but I love my car! How can I protect my assest?

- STOLEN CAR! WHAT DO I DO? So my 2002 Honda Odyssey was recently stolen and I immediately called the police, the car costed $5,000 dollars. Also, it had my phone in it too and all my painting equipment… What are the chances that my car gets found? What can I do for it to be found? How can I find my car? We're very poor and that $5,000 dollars is a fortune to us.
- I bought a car from Tony Honda of Hawaii and I found out this year that it won't pass inspection when I took it in? The Rims stick out past the wheel well and and that wouldn t allow a pass. So it doesn't have any recon stickers and somehow they got it to pass. What can I do, do I need to speak to legal on the navy base. Can they take this car back? They never told me about this tuff and they don't exactly have paper work for it either. Somehow they made it pass the first time
