From the supplier: Francis McKenzie sought coverage from the Auto Club Insurance Assn under the no-fault automobile policy for personal injury protection benefits. This came about after McKenzie and his wife were hospitalized for carbon monoxide poisoning when carbon monoxide fumes from the broken heater of the truck leaked into their camper. However, the SC has decided in favor of the insurer, noting that a causal relationship between the vehicle and the injury that is not incidental or fortuitous must be present.
