Is my car totaled

A broken window could put it over the top...
When I wrapped my mustang around a tree, the insurance was going to pay for the 8k worth of damage. I didn't wan't the pos back after all that damage so i paid the porter $200 to bust out the back hatch and quarter glass. The insurance cut me a 13k check.

I am sure the 8k had something to do with it.

He didn't specify any other damages besides the window, hence why I said unless they didn't ruin the car..............

Age also has a lot to do with it. For older cars, the insurance company will total it if damage exceeds half the value of the car IIRC. I'm sure his 10-yr-old Accord falls into that category.

stop asking us and ask your adjuster/claim manager

we can say "yep thats totaled" and the insurance will say no

call them and see that they say

most honda stufff is really easy to find and cheap.

Door panels for my 95 accord are like 100/pr at a junk yard

entire door was like 200

thats not possible.
totaled means it is undriveable.

Totalled means that its going to cost more to fix the vehicle than the vehicle is worth.

IF these accidents are covered by your insurance, find out what approved body shops are near you, and go get an estimate. Simple as that.
