notice of pending lien sale for vehicle valued $4000 or less
I was the registered owner of a vehicle that I totaled 6 years ago. I took a total loss and my insurance company wrote me a check. Now its 6 years later and I have recieved this notice. Can I be held liable for storage and disposal fees?

Re: notice of pending lien sale for vehicle valued $4000 or less
You statement indicates that the insurance company paid for the car. If you retained the salvage vehicle you may be liable for the storage of the vehicle. If the insurance company purchased the totaled vehicle then they would be liable for the storage. If you are the owner the vehicle then you should investigate the time limitations for the storage and sale of a vehicle. Start with Vehicle code section 22670 and forward.
