car crash - Toyota Yaris Forums

britalexis · 03-11-2012, 01:20 PM

i was in a car accident last week - where i hit wet gravel going around a sharp corner and spun into a metal pole .. from what i can see, the only major damage is my driver door where the car slammed against the pole, caving in the door and shattering the window... the door definitely needs to be replaced, but the rest of the car seems ok.

what are the estimates for a new 2007 white yaris (5 door) hatchback door with powered windows? anyone? :(

You can't put a price on love!

Pending the mileage, and whether it's coming from a dealer I'd say 8-10. That's for my area; I'm not too sure about Canada haha.

hey buddy, first all i'm sorry your crashed and i hope your ok. i did a search online and couldnt find a replacment door anywhere here in Michigan. if you have a junk yard near by i would call them tomorrow and see if they have one and even if its a different color have it painted at a shop. im sure its easy to install. if you have insurance on your car they might cover it after you pay a deductable. also did any air bags open during the crash? we have a law in MI that states a person cannot drive a car with a popped air bag, you must replace it. im not sure if thats just a state law or if its every where.

awkward............ I love reading disagreements. I agree, current society is going downhill fast.

britalexis - glad you are ok.

britalexis, glad to hear that you are okay. Hopefully you find a new door pretty easily and are back on the road soon.

Don't worry about the naysayers here, after all it's called a car accident for a reason!

Bottom line is NO one knows what really went on with the conditions other than what the OP said.

Would insurance not be able to tell you this?

Insurance would, but to avoid raising his insurance costs he may do this privately. (We have government run insurance in BC)
