Yep. Catostophic sinkhole damage is available where your house falls in a sinkhole but what happened is people were claiming settling with cracks as sinkhole damage. You can still get settling sinkhole damage coverage but you'll have to at your expense pay for testing which has a 98% fail rate so basically no coverage available.
