Narrative

I was in a t-bone accident involving my 2017 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk. The accident was severe enough to yield the vehicle undrivable and insurance has tentatively declared it a total loss (claim not yet finalized). I had a passenger in the front seat at the time of the accident and we were both surprised that no airbags were deployed in the accident. We were wearing seatbelts and fortunately the only injuries sustained were bruising, but without seatbelts injuries would have been far worse. The Jeep was purchased with approximately 25K miles on the odometer, had only one previous owner, and had no record of accidents, damage, deployed airbags, or recalls. At time of the accident, the odometer had around 54K miles, there were no warning lamps or messages, had still not been in any prior accidents, had been regularly maintained, and exhibited no symptoms or problems. Photos of damage attached.
