:slap:Well this sort of sucks, but my wife got t-boned in her 2011 charger r/t max. The impact was in the drivers side rear door just in front of the rear wheel. The door is caved in and the rear wheel is crooked, top pushed in. Has anyone had this and is it fixable or totaled?

Although the damage is significant, I would be very surprised if it is anywhere near totaled.

It looks like the main body cage is intact and the damage is limited to exterior panels and rear suspension components.

My guestimate (having not inspected the car) is no more than 30-40% of total vehicle value and completely repairable.

Thanks for the info. Several paramedics on the scene seemed to think it was toast. I couldn't tell, just worried a little about the canted wheel. The wife did two 360s and ended up in the ditch on the other side of the road.

It looks worse than what it may be. Looks like the door is the part that really took most of it. However, if the chassis was damage, then it may be a loss. Quarter panel is good, wheel may be done for but that doesn't mean that any HUGE amount of damage was done behind it. Maybe new struts, some new arms, etc. Nice car, would be a shame to have it be a loss.

Hey man, glad you're wife is OK! I'm impressed with the crash profiles of these cars.

I bet insurance will fix it unless airbags went off.
