it doesn't make sense this car has a pretty high salvage value why not total it sell it pay me the value and only pay out about 20k for this claim instead of 30-40k
Totaling a car costs the insurance company more money than to fix it. If the adjuster deems it safe to repair, not much you can do except see how much you can fight and see if they change their tune.
