    Damn Adam, you have the same luck as I do.

    Hope it gets resolved to your satisfaction....I would be raising nine kinds of hell with those people though, make your situation just as miserable for them as it is to you.

    Didn't go, had to go to class and run up to work afterward. A friend of mine gave me a few more ideas and I'm looking into those right now. I'll have a nice folder compiled by Monday for the body shop

    Not really, spent 3 hours today talking to various people at the body shop and dealership. Got some more paperwork, looking into a lawyer. Basically I was just given the run around.

    All this crap for being in the wrong place at the wrong time. My back still hurts from the accident and probably won't ever be perfect again. Looks like my car is just as crippled

    It works like the BIOS of a PC/Mac/notebook; most likely, a small watch battery runs it, just like in a computer.

    Lawyer... it's probably going to take a while I'm trying to track down what kind of litigation this falls under, it's a little blurry. Then I have to find a decent lawyer. I have a couple contacts right now, but I haven't had the time to talk to them with all the other crap going on. Good thing I have the next couple weeks off.

    I believe they offered to replace the ECU and be done with it.
