Replying to First accident today. i think i totaled my car.
yeah. my beloved ski mobile. a 2008 volvo s80 t6 that i love dearly.
i was going around 25 through a neighborhood on the way to school today and i started to skid on some ice around a turn. i was stupid and i was going too fast i guess. my tail flung out and i countersteered and got my car parallel to the curb but it was too late and my car slammed into the curb sideways, deploying some airbags on the passenger side of my car. after that, it wouldnt run properly and the engine stuttered and my front right wheel is not turning or rotating.
i think its the A strut or whatever or something involving the steering (i dont know a ton about cars)
the front wheels are basically like this | | / /
the fact that the engine isnt running right and the airbags makes me fear that shes totaled but im hoping for the best.
what do you guys think? im pretty sure my insurance might be fucked but the tow truck driver who took my ride said that theres a chance it can be fixed without telling the insurance.
any of you guys have experience and can tell me what to expect?
