First you need to remember that your car is not your car, yet. Your finance company needs to be sure the vehicle will be repaired if it does become a repo. The insurance check is your money. Can you still drive the vehicle without it being repaired? If so, you can use the money to pay the leinholder. Do you know how much it's worth? Do you know if your upside down in it? You could have it repaired, sell it, pay it off and buy a more affordable car.

Has the car already been repossessed or is it in the process? Like stated above, if it is drivable with out the repairs you may want to use the insurance money to pay your payment!
