The Anti-Subrogation Rule (“ASR”) is a common law defense to subrogation. It states that a subrogated insurance company standing in the shoes of its insured cannot bring a subrogation action against or sue its own insured.
Additionally, insurers can receive salvage recovery for totaled vehicles that they take possession of, regardless of fault. On the other hand, subrogation value can either be the amount to repair a damaged vehicle or, for a total loss, the remaining loss after salvage recovery, if any.
