73036 | All the sellers will say that the damage was cosmetic only, but most insurance companies aren't going to total a car for cosmetic damage.
Air bags, and seat belts are a major expense in repairing a late model wrecked car. That's why you see a lot of cars that aren't damaged all that bad, but have been totaled out by the insurance company. When fixing one, you have the choice of buying new air bags from the dealer (very expensive), or getting used ones from a salvage. Or simply not replace them, which I believe the air bag light will be on, if their not all functional. The seat belts, some of them have 3 separate firing devices that have to be replaced per seat. Their are aftermarket options for them, but still add a lot of expense.
A body shop would be a good place to take one to, to have it check out before buying, as they would know where to look.
