Supply chain issues delaying car repairs, leaving Illinois drivers stranded

Car accidents are bad enough. Now, drivers have another problem to deal with when a crash happens.

It's best to just buy a junker. Throw it away after an accident. Buy another junker.

The brain aneurysm guy said to expect food shortages!?!

Didn't lay blame, just matter of fact about her situation.
Glad she had the resources and forward thinking to patch the situation.

Depending on where you live, what you are accustomed to driving and whether or not you’re worried what other people think, there is or could be a solution. In my area there is a U-Haul rental. A pick up truck or a very small van cost $19.95 per day. And it might be a good way to get around it if you can stand the fact that you’re driving a rental vehicle. If appearances are a big deal maybe you will walk. If you need lodging for the evening in good weather, and a hotel cost $100 a night or more, rent a small van and some moving blankets, it might save you a lot of money.

Makes no sense when many body shops usually goes to a recycling auto parts like LKQ Recycling auto parts for their needs. Especially if OEM.

Illinois laws suck. If they choose to total your car you loose it completely

[bobroberts]

This isn't the fault of the insurance companies or the body shops.

[papercraneblog]

The insurance should have paid it out as s total loss

[paulwicklund]

Can't they check the junkyards for parts.

[josepena]
