    Looked like it was just a little love tap.

    Since the accident was in the rear side, I wasnt concerned about any engine/transmission damage. But the health of the battery pack was a big question being right in that area.

    With ANY salvage car, the damage has to be close to exceeding the car's value. The newer the year, the more damage it would have sustained

    So if a 2014 is worth $15000, the damage would have to be over $12000+.

    Ask and offer to pay for multipoint inspection at a dealership.
    Honest review and know really what issues you may have with the car.
