I got my LR RWD Tesla Model 3 4 weeks back and drove 600 miles. Had front collision to a car which ran over the red light. I am not at fault and the police report confirms the same. Front of the car is heavily damaged and lot of parts need to be replaced as per the body shop. Body shop's estimate for repair is around 20-25k. I am planning to push the insurance company to total my car because:
- I don't feel good about driving a repaired car for the rest of it's life.
- As I researched on internet, repair timelines are 5-6 months.
- Does anyone else gone through this? What do you think is better in this situation? Getting repaired or pushing for totaling it?
- How to push insurance company to total the car? and how to get full value of the car?
