My 2000 Insight was broadsided on the passenger side by a 1993 Oldsmobile Cutlass. Passenger side a mess, but they said it is fixable and no one seriously hurt. My question is, what about the batteries? Has anyone had experience. Should I ask the body shop to pull up the plate and take a look at them, or should I go to my dealer and have them checked? Perhaps it is not necessary at all to check them since they are on the opposite side?

Make sure when the body shop puts your Insight in the oven to cure the paint that they don't exceed 65 degrees Celcius (i believe) that is shown in the decal when you open the door. Temperatures higher then this will damage the battery pack.
