<prompt> Human: I drive an 07 VW jetta and was involved in a hit and run last Sunday in which my passenger doormirror were damage. The damage in my opinion is not very extensive but it will require a door replacement, I can post pictures if needbe. That being said, is it still possible to fix the vehicle? I cant imagine a door replacement being more than 2 grand which should be coverable by insurance assuming I cover the 500 dollar deductible.Assistant: If insurance has declared the vehicle totaled, they will not pay to get it fixed. You could pay cash to get the repairs done if youre willing, but your insurance company will not. Human: Should I get a second opinion from a body shop? The Jetta is worth atleast 10k. I thought if repairs exceeded 60 the cost then it would be considered totaled.  <response>: Dude... Im sorry, but you are WAY overvaluing your car.I just checked around and there are people selling 2015 Jettas for 10-12K.A 10 year old Jetta is going to have a retail value of somewhere in the 2000-4000 range and boy is it going to have to be perfect to get 4000, depending on which model it is a GLI will go for a lot more than a base model, and no, the ones you see listed for more than that arent actually going to sell. Its old enough that options arent really relevant. Mileage over 100K is going to dig away at that too.Realistically, ANY accident will total the car and your payout will be a lot less than you think.
