Accident in wifes Avalanche
It snowed over night about a couple inches, wife got up to go to work, went her normal route, came around a corner doing about 30 MPH, and all of a sudden, rear was even with the front. She tried to correct it but nothing doin'. The front passengers side tire hit a frozen bank maybe 18" high on the corner, and swung her around in the opposite direction. It was a secondary road so no other vehicles involved. After i got there, scoped it out, heres the damages.
1. Front bumper facia/cover
2. Pass. side front fender
3. Pass. side front driving light
4. Blown front pass. side tire (Took air but garage says wouldn't trust it, as it might have a shifted radial belt, but not sure...) Gonna put it back on this weekend and try it.
5. Front bumper valance
6. Pass. side headlight (Loose, broken tabs i think)
7. Pass. side directional ( Loose, broken tabs i think)
8. Pass. side cladding piece on pass. side fender
Estimate : $3,800.00
Wifesfine, tweaked/re-aggravated her lower back from tensing up, during accident, and hit leg on E-Brake lever. We had cops @ scene to do accident report, then they towed her truck because of tire. I took my wife down to local walk in care, they evaluated her, gave her presc. drugs for her back. Truck is drivable, so all in all, everything is fine considering. Found out something interesting too. She has a small crack in her windshield not from the accident, and called local glass company. Her windshield or mine, installed, get this........... $188.00. I figured atleast $400.00. TTYL, Jim
