Mine has $13,000 damage to it and the trunk and rear doors won't open. Considerable damage really.
My only beef with Kia is that I've been waiting a month and the autobody shop says that they are at a standstill because they are waiting for parts from Kia. They ordered parts over 3 weeks ago and they are still waiting with no solid date in mind. They told me that Kia is usually very good and will get them parts within a few days but the holdup is probably because of the Christmas holidays. Even with the holidays, they would have been waiting 2 weeks for parts. Not too impressed as it will still take a few weeks for them to actually fix the car when the get the parts. Nice that I only had my car for 2 weeks when this happened. Now my 3 month Sirius Satellite trial will only have a month available for me to use it. I guess the positive thing is that I don't make a payment until March so at least I'm not paying for the car while it's in the shop.  |
$13,000 in damage, it wasn't your fault and not an insurance write off?
Good luck anyway, I hope it all works out.
