Dropped off Sirius Blackie for his third repair in two months. For those who don't know, for some reason, a black HHR with pink pinstripes seems to be a target.
Late January I was rear-ended on the freeway, final cost: $2,000
Boy and I picked him up from the dealer, and went to Costco. We were inside about an hour, we walk out and I say to Boy, you know, that shopping car is a little too close to the fender.
Sure enough, bashed in fender, hit and run.
Cost: $600, I had to pay my deductible.
Pick up car ... run errands, head on home. Watching a kid behind me with his head bobbing up and down (meaning he is texting and/or reading a text--illegal in CA), keep going. Come to a stop at the light and well, he doesn't stop -- bam, right into the bumper that had just been replaced a few weeks before.
This time I had the car three hours.
Thankfully the pinstripes have been spared so far ...

Sorry to hear Sirius Blackie has been under several attacks..
Hopefully 3rd time is the charm..
