Missouri Web site blunder crimped collision claims.
Byline: Paul Wenske
Sep. 16--If someone crashed into your car, you'd expect their insurer to pay for repairs. You might also expect to recover any loss in your car's value.
Now a red-faced Missouri Insurance Department acknowledges that since June 2005, its Web site has erroneously stated that consumers were limited in how much they could recover after collisions with other vehicles.
Last week, after being contacted by The Kansas City Star, insurance officials admitted the blunder and said they are taking steps to correct the Web site to accurately reflect what consumers really can recover.
But some experts said the mistake already may have cost Missouri consumers plenty.
