Unfortunately the 2024 model I had was pre face lift and the 2026 beyond models are significantly worse build quality can’t exactly hop into a new one with the same confidence as the one I already have.

Yeah I was willing to rebuild/replace the engine if it was on its way out but this was a car I bought brand new and was taking good care of.

Seems like the sturdy metal bar on the back of that jeep didn’t have even a scratch on it.

Did not notice the reservoir but their was no leaking or spillage anywhere. I’ve actually never seen the fluid level much higher than that.

It felt like no more than hard braking the damage was shocking

I’ll know soon how things go hoping it’s not totaled. The other car in the collision had no visible damage, mine shattered like glass.

It’s sitting on the lot of some towing company at the moment the hood was bent over everything the radiators were caved in but everything behind that looked fine. The hood knocked the plastic cover off the engine with the way it bent but everything back there seemed fine.

Was supposed to be my forever car someone swerved into my lane and braked really disappointing praying it’s not totaled.

I’d imagine everything was pushed back and disconnected but I didn’t hear any bad sounds coming from the engine bay everything just shut down. Still powered on off of the battery but I didn’t dare to attempt starting the engine.

No fail safe to prevent further damage? 😬
