That's sickening. Hope everyone is ok.

All OK and the kid's Ford C-Max was not badly damaged. But mine could not be driven without issue and would need to be towed anyway. Lucky he had current insurance both with same company. I hope she can be repaired. I kind of like the ol' girl even with all the Mirage quirks.

Man that sucks. Glad everyone is OK.
I'm sorry to say but that damage is very close to what happened to my '14 which was written off. It really upset me.
I see Cobra mentioned the airbags but none fired. As long as the front frame piece is not bent you might be OK. It's a $1300 hit up here. Just that. Rarity of your car means nothing. My '14 had heated seats, alloys, Climate control, heated mirrors, etc. but that made no difference to the insurance pukes. It was nothing more than a base model ES to them.
Here in Ontario, it appears we don't have the right anymore to get a total loss settlement sheet which details what various wreckers have bid for the carcass. So we can't buy ours back.

That sucks! We always get to buy our wrecks back. If we don't buy it then they go to what ever salvage auction yard the insurance company deals with. It's easier for them just to sell it to us, they save on storage and towing and auction fees.
I've got a friend who had someone run into his truck writing it off. As usual the insurance company offered next to nothing to replace the truck. They kept sending buddy "comparable ads" from kijiji of 1/2 ton short box trucks while he had a 3/4 ton long box which are becoming harder to come by. I personally I thought what he was offered was fair but he stuck to his guns and eventually got close to what he wanted from them, it took a few months but he got almost double what they originally offered lol .

Ouch that's not good. Any word what the insurance company says is the plan for the car?
