buddy of mine hit a deer with similar looking damage, and they totaled his.. Mainly because it pushed the engine back into the transmission. but only your insurance dude will know for sure.So last Thursday 9/9/21 around 3:30 in the afternoon I got into a car accident it was raining hard and I had all my precautions on windshield wipers were on max speed and my lights were on and of course seatbelts were on and no distractions all of a sudden the Jeep Wrangler in front of me came to a complete stop full foot on brakes and I got scared and my reaction was to slam on my brakes to not hit the Jeep in front of me but I slammed so hard on my brakes that my car hydroplaned and slid into the back of the other persons Jeep and now I’m wondering if my Jeep is Fixable or it’s a total loss both driver and passenger airbags deployed, transmission is broken and front bumper got stuck under the guys Jeep is it a total loss or is it fixable?
OK PM me if you can sell that door.I’m not sure yet once they tell us later today or tomorrow if it’s a total loss I don’t know what they do with it if it’s a total loss
Will doOK PM me if you can sell that door.
Yea true there finishing up looking at it right now transmission is broken and I think it’s totaled because it hit a giant tire that felt like a rock and he had a custom steel bumper and a pullbar upfrontbuddy of mine hit a deer with similar looking damage, and they totaled his.. Mainly because it pushed the engine back into the transmission. but only your insurance dude will know for sure.
Yea of course even if the car is repairable I’m not taking it back cause I know that thing is gonna have a lot of issues on the future and it’s gonna cost me a lot of money to fix in the future so I think they are going to consider that also and the car is gonna go down a hell of a lot in priceI would hope/push for a TL at this point - I know I would not want it back.
There is clearly damage under the hood I am certain of itYea true there finishing up looking at it right now transmission is broken and I think it’s totaled because it hit a giant tire that felt like a rock and he had a custom steel bumper and a pullbar upfront
honestly i would say its not a total loss. frames from the manufacture are only like 2K and there are a few members have bought total losses and done the frame swap them selves. and there are even a few that insurance covered the repairs. transmissions are not to price either. I glad everyone was OK and remember its called an accident for a reason.

Yes indeed I’m glad everyone was ok and I’m pretty sure it’s going to be a total loss because not only did the front get destroyed transmission is broken so is the emergency brake and airbags deployed and if you looked inside the hood you could clearly see damage
Wow just for hitting a deer ye the front of the Jeep got pushed Into things in there so I’m not sure I’m just waitingbuddy of mine hit a deer with similar looking damage, and they totaled his.. Mainly because it pushed the engine back into the transmission. but only your insurance dude will know for sure.
No some accidents are avoidable, I don't want to make anyone feel bad.Accident is an accident, no sense in making the OP feel worse about his mistake.
high probability it’s a TL. While value is at an all time high, so is salvage value. Add that to probable frame damage, airbags deployed, and general lack of parts right now. Off this 1 pic and small bit of info I’d say 80% chance of totaling
Yes he hit the car in front of him so he was going around 45-50 in a 45 speed limit road and of course he should have been going slower since it was rainingNo some accidents are avoidable, I don't want to make anyone feel bad.
But a rear collision on a flat surface? Going to fast in the rain causing a hydroplane.
Did the guy that stopped short in front of him hit anything?
Sorry I drove for a living........can't help it.
FYI Any rear collision like this completely avoidable.
You were to close for the road conditions.
We all do things we regret…no reason to rub it in…OP didn’t ask for our opinions about the cause of the accident…FYI Any rear collision like this completely avoidable.

Questions that must be answered before we can determine if this is a TL:So last Thursday 9/9/21 around 3:30 in the afternoon I got into a car accident it was raining hard and I had all my precautions on windshield wipers were on max speed and my lights were on and of course seatbelts were on and no distractions all of a sudden the Jeep Wrangler in front of me came to a complete stop full foot on brakes and I got scared and my reaction was to slam on my brakes to not hit the Jeep in front of me but I slammed so hard on my brakes that my car hydroplaned and slid into the back of the other persons Jeep and now I’m wondering if my Jeep is Fixable or it’s a total loss both driver and passenger airbags deployed, transmission is broken and front bumper got stuck under the guys Jeep is it a total loss or is it fixable?
