- Hello. As I understand it the car belongs to the bank until it’s paid off. This balance was covered by the insurance company upon his death.The executor of the estate of your brother has the right to ask for the insurance contract and find out what happens to the damaged vehicle and any other terms of the insurance. He might need to send them a letter from a lawyer if necessary.
