i wouldnt worry about it. the reason i ended up with my insight is about the same as what happened to yours. it was sitting at an intersection (red light) and the lady behind didnt bother to stop. but instead of being shoved out into the intersection, mine (to be) was shoved under a lifted pickup truck! :shock: no problem with the batteries. they were already showing signs of old age, and they quit a year later. normal end-of-life-codes. no damage to the battery compartment. i just banged out the trunk area, resealed the seams that opened up, installed a used bumper bar and cover, and replaced the damaged parts in the front (radiator surround, hood, headlight buckets, one fender. good as new! 8)
