Description

HALLER, J.: A passenger is fatally injured in a single vehicle accident. The passenger's heirs recover money from the negligent driver's insurer and from the car manufacturer. The negligent driver's insurance policy limits are less than the passenger's underinsurance motorist policy limits. Must the heirs' recovery under the passenger's underinsurance policy be offset by the amount received from the car manufacturer? As we shall explain, the answer clearly mandated by Insurance Code section 11580.2, subdivision (p)(4)1 is that the insurance benefits are reduced by the amount received from the car manufacturer.
