Hi,
My Baja got side-swiped by a car coming from the opposite direction about a month ago. We were each going about 35 mph at the time so it took quite a whack. It's in the body shop for repairs right now. The problem I'm having is that there's a slight bump/bonk/clunk that I experience sometimes just before the car comes to a complete stop. The dealership has checked it out: 1. they can't reporduce (and neither can I) 2. they've checked the engine mounts and some other "usual suspects" that might be affected in Subarus in this type of collision and found nothing.
My Baja is a 2003 with 111,000 miles on it and I'm concerned that after "everyone's" satisfied that all the necessary repairs are done the problem will get more serious and the insurance company will give me a hard time about it being associated since the case is closed (as far as they're concerned). The car has some considerable mileage on it -- the type of mileage where people might start to use as an excuse thinking everything is going to start going wrong on a car anyway. It's been extremely well-maintained.
Can anyone out there offer some advice on what I might tell them to look for -- ESPECIALLY possibly something that might be internal and easier to overlook? Has anyone else had a similar collision/what damage did you experience?
Thanks in advance for the help.
