Minor Car Accident, Get serviced?

[kaz3e]

Hi Guys,

Was just in a 4 car pile up, lucky I was at the front(last car hit, I felt the bump).

When I went to inspect my rear bumper for damage the only thing that looked off was the tow bar cover had popped off a bit, nothig else seemed damaged.

I was able to drive home fine, didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

Should I get my car looked at to see if there is anything damaged?

I've got a 2010 Jazz thats done about 29000Ks, poor Jazz :( first accident.

Id get it properly checked out. Did you get all the other details of other cars ? you may need to claim on insurance etc

Yeh I got all the info just incase I needed to get anything fixed.

I think my next service is due soon (every 10,000ks?) might get it checked out then.

Just discoverd my driver side rear window won't go all the way down. :thumbdwn:

Gets stuck about 2/3 the way down.

I would take it into a crash repairer for them to have a look.Even a small impact can cost thousands to repair back to original. My 8th gen accord had a small scrape down one side(2 doors) and small dent on the rear bumper, est cost $6K!!!!!!!

yeah, you need to take it to a smash repairer. a mechanic wont know what to look for.

I finally got time off to get my car serviced. Apparrently the rear windows don't go all the way down, part of the design :confused: is this true? I've never noticed this before :o. Anyways the cars all good :D

in 95% of cars ever built, the rear windows dont go all the way down.

its because they physically cant, because the wheel arch is in the way

Thanks for clearing that up:thumbsup:, I was pretty embarrassed when the guy told me it was normal. I guess I should really get to know my car better.
