Our insured acquired a new car recently. He did not tell us about the new car until about one month after the acquisition. The insured has not been involved in an accident but he asked, for future reference, about the coverage for newly acquired autos that his personal auto policy provides. I have read the language on the personal auto policy, and I find it confusing as to the coverage the insured has for the new car. Can you help?
