Hey all.

I received a letter in the mail stating this will occur effective 20 days from the date of the notice.

The reason mentioned is that I was unable to verify insurance presented at renewal or purchase of plate/registration.

At the very bottom of the notice it shows

Note: Storage insurance is not no-fault insurance. On the date the vehicle registration is renewed, it must have Michigan No-Fault insurance.

I bought the car a couple of years ago on Craigslist and it turned out to be a real piece. Broken engine block, oil in the radiator, busted water pumped, no blowing air, the interior lights and dashboard don't work at all, along with other things that still are in need of repair.

I haven't been able to drive it, so it's just been sitting in my driveway this whole time.

Obviously I was never pulled over or received any type of ticket or violation.

Anyway, I'm very concerned over the letter from the Department of State.

I may have electronically changed the date on my insurance policy when I registered for new plates back in October.

I simply couldn't afford spending over $100 a month on a car that was just sitting in storage.

If I go to the DMV with newly purchased auto insurance, will I be legally confronted for my transgression that I made six months ago?

It seems that I have been somehow flagged in their system so I have my worries going there now.

Thank you kindly,
James
