I hit something guys on the way to work today. I didnt know it at first, till I got out of the car and spell something funny, it was antifreeze....later I went out to my car and noticed antifreeze everywhere....I didnt get in warning lights over heating....So I added somewater, and hope I will make it home on the 26 mile return trip, I hit the dealership in the morning, wish me luck!

 

also, guys I was driving at about 75miles all the way into work

 

If you have my luck it should only be a $1500 part thats broke

 

I hope now, blackmax, thats not what I want to hear

 

Hopefully it may be just a hose.

 

What was it that you spelled funny to make you think you had a problem...

Regardless, check you hoses first for loose conections/holes, inspect the radiator for leaks next. Good Luck...

 

No chernmax, Im always on point....well the dealer confirmed it was a rock and it costed me 870.00 to replace with a factory unit, I paid him on the spot no questions asked...Later once I got home I call the insurance people just to find out what they could do USAA...well they issued me a check on the spot for about 600.00, I should have the money in my USAA bank account within 24hrs...so the long and short I am only out of 300.00: had the oil changed and inspection completed also... This is what happens when you have a rock at 70mph

 

USAA is a great insurance company, I have been with them off and on for 18 years. Glad it got fixed...

 

Premium may go up ?? Is it worth it for small amounts?

 

I'm with USAA also...great company.

 

Great company. They should take care of you. I hope the rates don't go up. I would hope not it's not like you hit somebodys car. Who can dodge a rock on the highway they are all over the place.

 

I don't think so...it seems like it would qualify as a No-Fault situation on the driver's part.

 

Ill let you guys know if it does, it is shame if this happens

 

rates wont go up for that...how big was the rock? imean was it super loud or something?

 

very small, about 1cm

 

waht did the break from a rock the was 1cm big that cost 870 dollars ?

 

The rock went under the car, and hit and caused damage, create a small hole
