rear bumper modd

well Monday when I got off work and went to get in to my car to load up all my tools I noticed that my rear bumper was slightly out of adjustment(it was 3 FEET BEHIND MY CAR) turns out a semi truck clipped it pulling out of the job site. So I got hold of the trucking company and of course they said because I didnt have a plate number or witness I was screwed. But the owner said she would ask the other drivers turns out it was a new driver and he did go stright to her when hr returned to the yard that night and the insurance would cover everything( what a relief) so no money out of my pocket at least not yet the damage was sort of minimul there was some damage under the bumper cover and to the rear fender. but I noticed that on the rear passanger side there is a luverd vent that blows cold air out when running whats it for?

oh and the funny part of the story was that I had my car inside the building with me inthe morning but they where doing a bunch of concrete cutting for some pluminb so I decided to move it out side to avoid all the scratches the next time I washed it so I put it out in the street. LOL I didnt know trucks would be going in and out all day moving dirt dose it suck to be me or what

Oh man, that's gotta suck
Well, at least it's the ol:"Glad no one got hurt" line, tho i'd be cryin' if something happened to my ride.

Glad things worked out good for you on getting it repaired

It's just that, a vent. Lets air circulate out of the car.

That's the body vent valve.It's for the flow through ventilation system.
