I had been a long time member here since 2003, when I first joined so excited about my wonderful new 2004 Vibe. It's been a great car, almost 12 years later and 165,000 miles and it runs like a top. Until yesterday anyway. I had given the car to my son when I got a new car about 2 years ago. He was driving it yesterday when someone rear ended him pretty hard. He is safe and OK, and that is most important. This is a wonderful testament for the safety of this awesome car. The back is all pushed in, I think the frame may be bent, but it kept my son safe. I am impressed with how this car held up. He's a safe driver, so no fault on his side and the Vibe kept him safe.
So it's a sad day for the Vibe, but so happy my son is OK. The back doors won't open, the trim in the hatch area is all busted up, but he's safe and that is what is the most important. I would buy another Vibe, and maybe we will to replace this one if the insurance company totals it.
So what did the other car look like? She hit hard. I'd say in this Versa versus Vibe match up, the Versa lost, big time...
