I got to eat the cost of the insurance claim - only later to find out that there was a recall on the ABS system which I believe caused the accident.

It took 49 days to replace, meanwhile I have an infant and riding a bus and riding my bike everywhere because the dealer did not help me with a rental or loaner.
