Sadly, with deployed bags, it is most probably a total loss. Bags often
cost more to repair than the crash damage. Especially if the passenger bag
deployed as this will mean a complete dash structure assembly which is
labor intensive as well as usually the passenger bag breaks the windshield
as well. Hope for the best on this one.
@03pontiac Thank you for your compliments, glad to help.
Thanks for the kind offer of the Halibut, but I’m primarily an Auto Body
Collision guy. Maybe a Toyota mechanic will do a video? Or you could get a
service manual. Many times they have them at the library? Or you can get
one on CD off eBay. Thanks for watching. Best wishes for successful fishing.
@swert883 I think this is a joke from Jordan – That’s funny, because HSLA
steel (High Strength Light Alloy) is not to be heated and bent – NEVER use
a heat torch – So, what you have later is stress-cracking and eventually
catastrophic failure of the entire heated/pounded area and extensive
corrosion. Seems like you have not attended a school of repair of modern
autos nor understand modern alloys and the techniques for repair and
welding of these types of structures. Thank you for watching.
thanks for sharing your 35 years of experience with us.
good job but we arab didnt like cut cars we Modify the damaged portion of
the vehicle by hummer and fire
you are a very wise man, i can tell. God bless you for helping other
people. Your video wasn’t boring, i learned a lot of techniques from your
video, thank you.
Thank you for the kind compliment.
Yes, actually the oil pan can very easily be removed from the bottom of the
car. It is the same oil pan as the 1.8 Corolla.
Nice job, I wish the dealership that ‘fixed’ my 2006 Vibe saw this, they
did a horrible job.
This is a really nice bday gift here… 8) Tomorrow is my bday, and 6 yrs
ago tomorrow, I bought my Vibe. These videos are very helpful for modding
and repairing our Vibes 8) I’ll be sure to promote your videos on
GenVibe.com
Mostly, this video as well as the others have given me hope. My son just
smashed up the front of my Vibe yesterday. (Air bag deployed.) Have not
seen the damage yet. We live in Indiana too. Just pray and hope that it
will be fixed. Literally and figurativly a lot rides on this repair when it
happens.
@earltuckian Thanks for uploading the your videos of your vibe I have a
vibe also and your videos sure help out. You should upload a video on how
to drop a oil pan and clean the screen, That would be cool. Ill send you a
bag of fresh halibut if you do. LOL
I have a vibe that had almost the same problem I have to clean the oil pan
and oil screen now. Is it pretty easy to drop my oil pan?
