If I worked for a shady company like that, it would only be long enough to find out what they were actually up to. It seemed that some of the ones I worked were shady enough as was. You could never find this stuff out until you actually went to work there.
If it’s totaled, you won’t get anything extra for the gas, so you may as well grab a few pans & slide under it just far enough to poke a hole in the tank & drain it.
That’s what they wanted to do out of laziness but the external damage is not the issue.
The impact messed up the radiator, the alignment and all the electrical stuff that was unfortunately on the side the idiot hit.
Despite being a lowly PT Loser it was my “ dog car” tgat I took him to his oncology appointments in and I missed 9 months of those fighting to get the car REPAIRED instead of half ass “ totaled”.
Until July 5, I was still taking it on very short errands, despite the increasingly bizarre electrical “phenomena” but it was not something I’d have risked on a 150 mile round trip to the vet in Gaithersburg.
Prior to the non-native speaker plowing into me after running a stop sign, the car was incredibly dependable and I’d just had a new radiator, new tires and wheel bearings and an alignment done.
But Allstate does not care at all.
They keep jerking me around and offering “body repair “.
I do not drive the body.
I drive all the internal stuff that was knocked out of place.
We and the dog were injured but couldn’t even go to the hospital or vet because we were staying in a motel after the house fire just weeks before.
Hospital won’t allow the dog and the dog could easily open the locked motel door from the inside.
But they don’t care.
