      September 9th I was inside a store and my car was hit with my teenager in it. I had full coverage with them. There is camera footage that I was inside the store when the guy hit my car. They are fighting to fix it and to pay for my son's medical bills. They never told me that they was stopping my insurance with them and I drove without no insurance. I have 5k damage to my car. I had full coverage and you would think it would pay for a rental but no it doesn't with them.
