If you have your stock parts take them and toss them in the back seat and take our aftermarket parts........insurance is not gonna give you one red cent for them.

wow after reading up on this forum it seems like the tC is the most accident prone cars in the world....no wonder the insurance is so dam high.

looks like u can salvage most of the parts on that car.
hope the aftermarket stuff is alright.

Yeah the tires were the stock POStenzas. They only had about 22-24K miles on them and should have been good. Got the call today and it is definitely totaled, they sent all the stuff to my insurance, so I'll let you guys know what's going on there.

i'm glad you're alright too. bzinn is right. you can take parts off the car only if you have a direct replacement for each part. they don't have to be installed, so you can just throw them in the back of the car.

Yeah no doubt, I was lucky. Hopefully the insurance will give me enough to get another car. I am really hoping to get around 16K for it, I hope that's not too optimistic!

And no, my airbags didn't go off, not sure why. The inside of my car is perfectly okay, it's just the outside that's bad.

I would have Bridgestone investigate that tire that blew.

every random tC i see down here, the tires are bald and dry rotted.

give Bridgestone a call ASAP so they can write down the serial number and stuff. a tire shouldn't just fail like that

My tire pressure was good, but my tire just went flat all of the sudden on the highway. When I tried to slow down, it just blew out on my and slammed me right into the guard rail.
