How many days written notice must a California private passenger auto insurer give before non-renewing a policy?
a.30 days
b.60 days
c.90 days
d.120 days
Explanation
Cal. Ins. Code §662 requires the insurer to mail or deliver a written notice of intent not to renew at least 60 days before the policy expires. If the insurer fails to give 60 days' notice, the policy effectively continues. The 60-day rule is distinct from cancellation grounds, which are limited under §661.
