My Alero vs. Frito Lay Truck Accident

[aLeRogrL21]

Recently on Thursday, February 19, 2004, I got into an accident with a big Frito Lay truck at the Citgo/7-Eleven driveway at 8:15am on the corner of Rt. 64 (North Ave.) & Randall Rd-St. Charles, IL.

I was stopped waiting to pull out and head to work when this d**khead took out the drivers side front corner panel, part of my hood, and my whole front bumper of my Alero. I'll be posting pictures in the next few days once they are developed!!!

So my poor Alero has the headlights taped attached to the front frame of the car...believe me, she looks so ghetto!!! Frito Lay is conducting an investigation on who's at fault and I have not been issued a rental car yet. Even though, I've been issued two warning tickets for no front license plate and one headlight out in the last week. Thought I would let you guys/girls know to watch out more for the idiots on the road.

That sucks! I hope they figure it out soon.

[Oldsman]

thats sucks girl. hope they hurry the process up.

[jonez]

Damn that sucks.

[Silentalero]

ouch that does suck, plus you never know what engine damage he couldve caused

[aLeRogrL21]

Your telling me^^^^...She makes so much noise right now that it's hard to say. I've been bitching while at work with the other insurance company to get a stupid rental car so I have a car to drive at night. I can't see poop when I drive at night, it's like driving in the fog.

[aLeRogrL21]

Thanks for the support everyone!!!!

[johny_boy32]

good luck with all that...sorry for the bad news

[King Asoka]

dood, that sucks!!!!! i hope everything works out for you!

[fiestyalerogirl81]

Sorry to hear about that Heather. Hey do u want any of us to go after this punk?(gets bat ready in hand) And smother his face all over the pavement for ruining your car? Also check for any frame damage that you might not see to the visible eye.

[dopey]

[Purple&Black]

Dammit, Sweet...I had a smart-ass comment all ready and then I got to your post... :P

Yeah, that totally sucks though Heather... I think people with "alerogirl" or some derivative of that in their name ought to watch out. Two in a week?

Very sorry to hear about this Heather. Hope your alright. Do you have Rental Car on your insurance. I have found that it is best to go through your own insurance and let your insurance company go after them. They have the cash and lawyers to make the other guys pay what they should. You will have to cover your own deductable till your insurer gets the cash from Frito Guys. But, when they get payed you get your deductable back. It's really a lot less stressful that way too. It won't effect your insurance at all either, because they get there money back in the end. Hope this helps. See ya Honey.

[Oldsman]

^^^very true. this is what i did when that woman hit me. It does make things easier. If you have to get a rental and you don't have it on your insurance their insurance will reinburse you for it.

Awwwhhh we got another Aleromod hook up in the making......awwhh how cute... Its puppylove. LOL. j.k.


Oldsman it also depends on the insurance companies to on wht they will pay.

[Oldsman]

true but if he is issued a ticket his insurance has to claim all responsiblity and pay for everything.

[fiestyalerogirl81]

yeah but knowing that frito lay will con their way out of it.

[aLeRogrL21]

Well after a week has gone by and no call back from the insurance company about a rental car...yeah I understand if I pay the deductible I'll be able to get things taken care of a lot faster...that's what my insurance lady had said...I don't have an extra $500.00 sitting around because I've been trying to pay off my car and other bills so I can get a townhouse here in the late fall...so all my extra money I'm trying to pay off some bills. So in the next couple weeks I'll have that money from my second job, but do I really want to wait a couple weeks and drive my car at night when I can't see poop.

**Trying to use up the film on my camera so I can post my ghetto Alero pictures for all of you and then you'll all know what kind of damage this asshole :pissed: really caused. As you can tell, still aggrivated about the situation. :pissed:

[aLeRogrL21]

[aLeRogrL21]

Just got a rental car finially...guess? It's a toyota carolla 4-door!!! It's got some pep, but it's not the Alero! Sorry guys, been busy with insurance people and body shop. Haven't had time to post my pictures. I'm positive that they will be up this week though.

The other insurance company doesn't want to take responsibilty for damages. So my insurance is going to have to take them to court--arbitration!

[jturkey69]

damm girl that sux, any idea how long they will have our car??

[aLeRogrL21]

About a week...thinking about thursday or Friday, I'll get it back. I can't wait til I get my baby back...stupid rental car is too slow.

[Oldsman]

i hope they do a good job for ya. let us know when you get it back.

[Oldsmopimp]

[fiestyalerogirl81]

should have demanded something better than the alero , for your rental car.

[aleroman8]

Damn!,Sorry about your car. But don't feel to bad. I just put my car in the body shop today. They gave me a 2004 jeep grand cherokee trail rated edition for a loaner.

[aLeRogrL21]
