T-boned by a GMC Canyon. Luckily the speeds were fairly low and the car held up well. The side curtain airbags did deploy. OnStar called the police and immediately sent a kill signal to the engine.

damn man, I think it looks worse than it really is though, doors probably just meant to crumple like that. I bet that's completely fixable.

I sure hope so. I have a nearly identical (but 2013 instead of 2012) Volt on-hold at a Carmax down in Austin just in case, but ideally I hope this once can be repaired since it's in nearly perfect condition, has new tires, and has all the maintenance up-to-date. Luckily, the suspension/wheels/tires all appear fine, and the fact none of the glass broke is a good sign I would imagine.

Yes sir! Including the guy driving the truck...who just happens to be the regional manager for Esurance :lol:

Exactly what it reminded me of as well! At least this truck didn't have a brush guard.

Yowza! Good thing it was a Canyon and not a Silverado. Glad you're alright.

It's at the Chevy dealership's collision center now and should hear from the insurance company later this week on what they're thinking. With all the electronics, I figured it was a wise choice to let the dealership handle this one rather than the body shop I typically use.
