What To Do When You Wreck Your Car | Cash For Cars Atlanta


No one wants to get into a car wreck, but it happens, even to the best of drivers. Knowing what to do after you wreck your car is important. It can be a stressful experience and when under stress we sometimes make poor decisions. So try to stay calm and review your situation from a reasonable standpoint so that you can salvage what value you can from your vehicle.  Here are a few things to consider when you wreck your car…

DETERMINE  THE VALUE OF YOUR CAR BEFORE AND AFTER THE WRECK: Knowing the value both before and after a car wreck is imperative. If the wreck has caused your car to lose most of it’s value, that should help you decide if it is even worth it to consider repairing your car. If the wreck was not your fault, be sure the responsible party compensates you fully for your loss. 

CALCULATE WHETHER OR NOT IT IS WORTH IT TO REPAIR YOUR CAR: If repairing the car turns out to be your financial responsibility after a car wreck, you may not want to repair it if the repairs exceed or come close to matching the value of the car. Those funds would probably be best used as a down payment toward another vehicle that is in good condition. 

WEIGH YOUR OPTIONS FOR KEEPING YOUR CAR VS. SELLING IT: Make a list of the pros and cons of keeping your car vs. selling it. Be sure to take repair costs, car value, how often your needed repairs previously and the age of the vehicle into account.
