So I just filed a claim for hail damage and State Farm wrote me a $3000 check.
My question is do I have to get the dents fixed? I'm in a bit of a pickle right not financially and a little bit of this money could really help get my life a little more together. Is it possible to just get some of the dents fixed?
pretty sure it's insurance fraud if you don't

if you've paid off the car then no, you don't have any responsibility to use the entire auto insurance payout for the vehicle.
Claims adjuster here. Since you got the check and it's such a large amount I'm assuming there is no lienholder.
So, no. You don't have to...but have fun explaining that unrepaired damage if you ever have to file another auto claim. The insurance companies take things like that into account.
We take everything into account.
Everything.

I make payments on it every month to Golden Plains Credit Union.
