Default My Monte might be dead :[

I got into an accident this friday, some new driver slammed their breaks on a busy highway and I was the unlucky driver behind them.
Needless to say if my Monte gets totaled I'm going to most likely buy another one, haha.

The most important part was if everyone was okay.... it depends on if any damage was done to the rear fenders... if they just screwed up the bumper good you can replace it. Do the doors shut fine? Does the trunk open and close like it should?

Sorry to hear this happened. As long as you're okay is the main thing that matters.

If the air bag didn[t go off the ins "May" repair the car? Other factors include how well you kept the car up, how easily do the doors operate (open & close), did the crumple zone spots collapse, things like that.

If you did any upgrades to the car I'd make sure I mentioned that to the insurance. They're support to take this info in account when determining whether to total out or not.
