My dad got into a car accident in Ontario Canada with a driver whom are driving a company car. The driver of the other car are declared at fault by the cops. My dad’s car is declared a total loss and I know that he will only get the blue book value for his car from the insurance.

My dad keep his car in top shape, have go to every maintain suggested by Toyota, the car is a 1999 camry. However most 1999 camry are build in USA, while he have this car imported from Japan.
So my question is, could we sue the other owner or the company he work for under small claim court for the remaining cost to replace the car since it shouldn’t be replaced if it wasn’t broken.
Also my dad believe that the driver are using his cell phone when the accident happen, is there a way to subpoena they cell phone record to see if the phone number is using the phone when the incident happened?

Your insurance will sue the other driver fir any money they pay you. You are entitled to the fair market value of the car, which is not necessarily the Blue Book value. If you believe that the car is worth more than blue book, then you get to try to persuade the court of that fact. The fair market value is what it would cost to purchase an identical vehicle in identical condition.
