A lot of times you won’t know you have whiplash until 24 hours later. If that happens she should see a doctor (Harrison as well) so that something is on record with a doctor. I’ve known people (usually older than your kids) that have had years of problems/therapy stemming from pretty minor accidents.
Glad the Carothers Performance Kids are alright!

Yeah, I felt a tightness in my neck when I got whiplash, but I thought that I was ok. The next day my neck was hurting like hell.

Yeah, Harrison says he has whiplash. He was in the car with her.

I hope they didn't get whiplash too bad. Hopefully the seats in the car are high backs with the headrest. The seat in the big truck that I was driving when I got rearended only came up to my shoulders. My head went way back. But it is getting better every year just like the people in therapy said it would.
 
Looks like replace quarter/tail panel/trunk floor/deck lid/bumper/ lights/ blend rear passenger door

Looks like the other quarter panel might be okay

In this crazy market with used vehicles values going up... we've fixed a lot that would've been totalled 2 years ago... it'll all depends on the value of the vehicle now

I was wondering when you’d make an appearance!
It looks like the airbags didn’t blow also, so that’s a positive in terms of salvageability.
I guess it all comes down to mileage and if the juice is worth the squeeze so to speak.

Nathan the Machinist Nathan the Machinist you want my estimate to run it through our repair system tomorrow?

Won't be an exact repair dollar amount but might give you an idea

Don’t forget muffler, possibly catalytic converter, ... who knows.

Either way, it’s an insurance case, including therapy for the wiplash, I hope.

Hope the kids feel better soon, CPK family !
 
Glad that the kids are ok - hopefully the aftereffects are minimal.

I totaled my brand new Subaru Crosstrek Sport last year, despite it having no external damage. Due to my unintentional off-roading, I bent the frame in 4 different places and my insurance would not authorize the repairs. All that to say - there could be all sorts of "ungood" that you can't see.

I sold the salvage to my body shop and the owner fixed it up for his dad.

I was unable to replace my Crosstrek so I got one of these instead. It rules.
