Hit debris again!
3 Attachment(s)
Last June I hit a tire on my way home from work on Fla turnpike.
Now this morning at 5am on my way home ,it happened again! I never seen the tire , just a big bam! It was still dark out and I am tired from working 13 hrs ,but I knew it was tire debris from the black mark on the bumper. it will need a new splitter and paint work for sure. It also caught the ground effect under the driver door. I made a claim as soon as I got home and will be taking her in to the shop on Monday. I didn't make a police report since i just kept driving home and that is where I discovered the damages.The Rep didn't ask me about a report but the adjuster may ask. Hopefully it is not a problem. |
DOH ! I hate that......but it looks like it could have been a lot worse....I'd say you were more lucky than unlucky.

Sorry man..I feel your pain. I hit one a few years ago..over $3K damage. Tires on the highway are a menace!

Hate to see and hear OP. Sad how many people don't check basic tire pressure and condition on their vehicles. Last week, i saw at least 10 pickup trucks with trash flying out of the bed area. I hit a truck tires tread about 8 years ago in my daily driver on the freeway (couldn't miss it) main thing I walked away without a scratch, good for me my bumper was popped back in place with just a minor blemish left behind. Keep ya head up.

Good luck with your repairs.

I completely understand how you feel Louie.. it friggin sucks...
I had my Weber Sports kit finished on 7/4/16, then on 9/3/16 a rolled rug popped off a truck in front of me on the freeway and hit my front bumper. Needed a whole new bumper plus paint and re-fitment of other parts. Got my car back in mid November from the fixes and on Thanksgiving I end up having bag of gravel come off a landscaping truck and demolish my new front bumper and passenger wheels. Car just went in for yet a new front bumper and paint and still haven't fixed the wheels.. |
Don't feel bad. I'm on my 3rd splitter. :shakes head: Broke one on the street, and the other two on the track. :driving:
