OK, so this happened yesterday. Got rear-ended by a young kid in an old Pontiac. He had insurance but minimal coverage. His insured advised me to file a claim on my insurance as his will not be enough to cover the repair/rental car. I have AAA and filed a claim immediately and am waiting for the adjuster's direction.
Anyone have experience with this?
- Would like to have repair done by a Tesla shop. Not an 'authorized' one. But open for advice on this one.
- Rental car: anyone successful on being provided a "comparable" vehicle?
- How long did the repair take? I heard it's getting better
- Prefer advice from So Cal owners....but not mandatory
- Will lose the purple HOV stickers. How to replace?
Oh yeah, dash cam was on but I guess I needed to press SAVE because files were overwritten on the way to my insurance company.
Needless to say, it's a sad day in my household. It really hurts!! Didn't even reach it's 1-year birthday!!
Had to dust off the ICE vehicle and put gas in the tank. (WHAT?)
Looking forward to your responses. Thanks in advance!!
BTW the trunk seems to close normally but one of the photos shows inside the well of the trunk with it's interior pushed in. Another photo attached was taken by aiming my camera inside a gaping hole under the bumper cover. Damaged metal showing from trunk well
