My 2006.5 Jetta got hit in an intersection today by a GMC SUV that ran a red light. Ran the light late since my daughter said she was in the middle of the intersection when she got hit.
I know how easy it is for these older cars are to get totaled with what looks like not that much damage. The door took the major hit but it did graze the rocker and section between the wheel well and door.
My daughter siaid that the car got knocked across the intersection into the media and when my wife and I looked at the scene of the accident there was no skid marks and my daughter said she didn't hear any screeching tires so maybe the GMC was traveling the speed limit of 35 mph when the impact happen?
Which makes be worry about a bent chassis?
