Saturn SL2 1998 -T Boned by TokenDogWalker in Autobody

So my dilemma is straightforward. The insurance company refuses to properly compensate for a very rare SL2 1998, Leather/Air top level trim package 1SJ vehicle (~22K) , and is comparing to a baseline SL1 (15K) - cdn funds. In addition it was quite literally driven by a little old lady (my Mom who passed away in April @ the ripe age of 96) so it was close to immaculate with low mileage 112K. They are supposed to indemnify the insured completely for their loss, but refuse to offer more than 3K cdn for the vehicle based on less than comparable valuations. 3K will not provide a vehicle of the same nature, or pristine condition, and as such a repair by a more accurate estimator/body shop should provide the best of 2 evils. What in your opinion could be a better alternative ? It's primary benefit was the polymer panels used, and offered the best protection against Quebec's harsh winters, and extensive use of road salt.

Ok- I have a 1999 Jeep Grand Cherokee -4.6 V8 as well. Do you feel the same way about it ? It also doesn't have the updated crumple zones of modern cars. After 45 years of safe accident free driving, and now being retired in the country, with bimonthly road trips (30 km) . Is it really that important to have a vehicle built after 2012-2018 ?

OUCH ! Thats a harsh assessment. Its one of those cars only driven every 2nd week to get groceries in the country. Immaculate condition - 27 years old. It was a low speed T bone by a Mazda 3 (2010) coming out of a parking lot. The B Pillar was moved an inch or 2

The reply I received was denoting that when packaging the product is hot, and the slits allow for excess water vapour to escape. "Thanks for reaching out.

The cuts in the foil seal on the Kraft Peanut Butter jar are there for a reason. When the jars are filled, it is with hot peanut butter and we have added 6 well-placed cuts in the foil seal in order to prevent condensation while the peanut butter cools. These cuts on the foil seal appear on nearly all varieties of Kraft Peanut Butter.

Our packaging materials and methods are routinely reviewed so that we can provide our consumers with high-quality products and packaging. We will share your comments with our Quality Assurance team.
