My mother's 9-3 2000 was hit on the driver's rear side by another car. The door needs replacement, the quarter panel fixed up (I don't know how involved that is...it's the panel that's part of the car and not removable like a door) and the wheel checked. Car is drivable but rubs on bumps against the frame from the quarter panel as it is bent.
They gave her a settlement of 3100 Canadian dollars. The car is in awesome shape.
Is it worth fixing? Is it worth accepting the settlement? Is it stupid to accept their first offer?
I have no experience with this.
I'm hoping you all can provide some tips on how to deal with the insurance payout. The other issue on whether to fix the car is separate. I doubt the insurance company will now fix it, so it would be up to her.
Thanks for your help as always!
