How can I acquire copies of insurance claims not by me?

Question

I don't want get banned or get my question closed again by moderator. Just checking if this question is on topic on the main?

---

In 2016 my mom bought a NEW car as clearly stated on the contract. Because the same problems recurred, on Jan 1 2020 I bought a CarProof report that lists Insurance Claims before 2016 with only the date, Location (ON, Canada), Type of Claim, and Amount. I know her car's VIN. How can I obtain copies of these Claims with just these scant details? Discovery starts on Jan 1 2020 as per the Limitations Act, 2002 s 5.

Answer 1

Because it is Canadian specific I would be unable to give an answer to the question.

But upon seeing this question on the main site I would ask you:

• How many miles were on the new car when it was purchased?
• You mention that the car was purchased in 2016. But what model year was the car? and what month in 2016 was the purchase?
• Does Carproof have an option for getting a more detailed report?
• You said: "same problems recurred". What problems? and are they covered by the warranty or a recall notice?

So details are needed.

Unless something with a big clue comes from these details, I would guess that you need to talk to a consumer complaint lawyer.
