[WSBAPT] Leased Car - Not being picked up; estate being charged storage

[Brent Williams-Ruth]

Greetings List Members -

I have a situation that is new to me. One of my probate decedents was
involved in a car accident prior to death. (death not related in any way to
the accident FYI). The car was leased.  Because the insurance had already
agreed to repair, the PR continued with that and was told by the company
that they would just take it back directly from the autobody repair shop.

That has not happened and the car was ready March 17th. The autobody shop
was really understanding of my PR especially because they are out of the
area...but now they are looking at three weeks, they are charging $100 per
day for storage of the car.

Has anyone been through this? Other than continuing to try and reach the
car company leasing department and also looking for cheaper storage options
- I feel a bit trapped.

Thank you!
Brent
