High insurance rates blamed on parts prices in New Hampshire
New Hampshire acting insurance commissioner Leo Fraser blamed Detroit mandated car parts for rising private auto insurance losses. He cited a 74 percent parts price jump and said a 1976 car could require parts costing 23 000 to 24 000 to repair. If rate requests pass, Manchester two car families could face 181 more annually, Nashua 131, Concord 106. Fraser noted overall industry losses and scheduled hearings starting March 30 to review requests.
