Some of you may recall I posted about my accident last month (got rear-ended by a GMC Yukon, pushed into another SUV). Anyway, due to my lease situation, I have to take the car back, at least temporarily.

It was returned to me yesterday. It actually looks really good and it runs great. However, I noticed a few small problems such as the interior driver's side door handle isn't installed tight enough, the CD player makes a bad noise when I am putting in/taking out CDs, the passenger side visor has a cut in it, and, most importantly, the trunk latch is a bit misaligned. These are all things that will get fixed with little pain.

So, finally, here is my question...what else should I be looking for, both now and over the next few months?

I originally had planned to get rid of it once I worked through a settlement with his insurance company regarding medical bills, pain and suffering, lost wages, etc. But now I am considering all options. It was/is my prized possession.

Any thoughts?

 

If you had any frame damage be sure to watch your tire wear. It may be just an allignment or the frame may not have been straightened properly. I can relate you your situation. Had a Mercedes SL push me into an Beemer M5 last year. About $8K in dammages

 

Thanks. Good advice. The only frame damage was to the very end of both rails, but I will watch the tires carefully.
