In Reply to: When your auto insurer raises rates, blame GM. posted by peppy m. on January 17, 2025 at 06:01:06:
My niece had a deer run into her car which deployed some air-bags. The insurance company had to write-off the vehicle even though it still had half it's useful life left.
Each damaged part appears to cost about $3K to fix/replace. Multiply that by at least 4 and it's easier to just write off the vehicle as salvage.
I think these cars get sold at auction and some third-world country fixes it and air-bags, who needs that?
