Co., 324 N.C. 289, 378 S.E. 2d 21 (1989), filed contemporaneously with this opinion. Factually, this case differs only in that the insurance policy at issue preserved, rather than waived, the right of subrogation. This difference is not material to our disposition of this appeal.\nFor the reasons fully and aptly stated in Silvers, we hold that plaintiffs entry into a settlement with the tort-feasor without defendant\u2019s consent does not bar her claim for underinsured motorist benefits as a matter of law.\nThe decision of the Court of Appeals is affirmed. However, the case must be remanded to the Court of Appeals for further remand to the trial court to determine whether defendant was prejudiced by plaintiffs failure to procure its consent to the settlement.\nModified and Affirmed.",
