Hey everybody,
5 days after I pick up my Model S, I got rear-ended today :\
I was stopped at a red light, and it went green, the gentleman behind me jumped the gun and ploughed straight into my car.
The hatch still opens and closes (painfully) but has two major dents, as well as the bumper and the rear bar being bent in a bit.
Lets see what they say tomorrow. EMCW will give me a quote by tomorrow.
The person's insurance company (GEICO) called me, saying they'd take full responsibility for the repair.
I had a chat to Tesla Service in Costa Mesa (CA) and they recommended European Motor Car Works in Santa Ana CA.
GEICO want me to go to one of their local repair shops for an assessment. I will be going for that tomorrow at 10AM.
I clearly told them that I want all repairs to be done by a Tesla Approved Body Shop, and as Euro Motor Car Works is Tesla's recommended, Geico said that that shouldn't be a problem.
Any advice, comments?
