R.i.P. my P5

Very sorry to hear

I live in Chicago and I know the exact spot you're talking about. This sounds like a worst nightmare. I just bought my car and I'm sick to think this could happen.
Keep us posted, want to know if his insurance really covers the damage or do they screw you over. Who do you use for your mazda mechanic??

Let us know. Have a Protege5 garage sale!! Yay!!

I also suggest that if you need a hand, let us know and we can bring tools each and strip that P5 faster than Rosie O'Donnell can rip open a case of Twinkies....

snip: i just have one question does anyone know of hearin problems with mazdas airbags goin off???? cause mine didnt and when dexter had his miss hap...nither did his?? just wonderin ...alright later guy and girls...any question feel free to ask

Sorry to hear about the accident :( Though as a person who has had both front airbags go off in an accident, be glad you were not hurt and they didnt go off. I think I would have been better if they didn't in my case. I ended up with burns on both arms and a broken hand from them.

For the $9800 CDN to fix the car they said that about 5 to 6 of that was just for the airbags. Damn things are the biggest reason for our insanely high insurance rates.

Sorry, had to rant there for a sec.

Good luck with whatever the new car will be !

front airbags are only designed to go off if you get hit directly from the front. IIRC up to an offset of 15 degrees, I dont know if your vehicle was equiped with side airbags, but I presume that you would have to get hit at close to 90 degrees for those to deploy
