xcaliber81 Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 My wife has a broken wrist. She was going through a green light and a guy in a rav4 ran a red light it spun her around and it bounced off a light pole. This was highway speed and my 5 year old was sitting in a car seat on the rear passenger side where the big dent is dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkeaton Posted September 21, 2015 Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 So replacement coverage how's it gonna work? I'm willing to bet it's a write off Looks totaled to me. Not sure how your insurance works in Canada but you should ask your insurance rep that question. Was the other driver cited? dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcaliber81 Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 I'm pretty sure. He admitted fault already dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xcaliber81 Posted September 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 21, 2015 Looking at the roof there's a dent there I think the passenger a pillar is dented I can see the frame where the engine mounts to is also distorted and over half the air bags deployed. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lobitz68 Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Wow... people by you can't drive, eh? Glad everyone is alright and nothing more serious happened. What are you thinking you will move to since this one is likely totaled? dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B4ZINGA Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Even though it's a 2014, I'd say it's a write-off. Looking at the way the hood is cocked over and the passenger doors are sticking out, there's a lot of structural damage. But, the important thing is wife and child are okay. They'll be shaken and should be checked out for whiplash... but I'm guessing you already did that if her wrist was found to be broken. That's going to hurt quite a bit, hopefully the doctors set it right and she won't need surgery. Friend of mine was rear-ended in his Mercedes C300 a few years ago and pushed into oncoming traffic. The car saved his life and the worst was a broken ankle, but he had to have surgery and still isn't 100% right. jkeaton and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bfurth Posted September 22, 2015 Report Share Posted September 22, 2015 Glad to hear everyone is more or less ok. A broken wrist from that kind of impact is light damage, all things considered. jkeaton and dhh3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xcaliber81 Posted September 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Yea. I'm still responsible for finance charges though. dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkeaton Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 What finance charges? dhh3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bfurth Posted September 24, 2015 Report Share Posted September 24, 2015 Assuming that means the original vehicle was on a loan, and underwater (as most new car purchases tend to be). Gap insurance is the only thing that would cover that. The at-fault driver's insurance is only liable to cover the damage to the vehicle (and passengers and contents), not pay off your loan. dhh3 and jkeaton 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
