Cool should get it back monday

yea my car has been at the dealer once again for a week and half so im driving my dads 4x4 expedition that just drinks gas .....the SS/SC had numerous problems all happen in the same day...and its all from my wreck...idk why they didnt total it...13k+ in damages and they didnt total it WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!
heres the list of what went wrong..

1. service air bag light
2. speedometer stopped working.( good thing i pay attention to RPM's lol)
3. Power steering went out
4. engine makes noise at low rpm under light acceleration
5. sounds like the bypass valve is working as a BOV lol
all this happened on the day of the local meet!! i was so whle everybody cruised to the spot to eat i had to park my car at my work and ride with bitz..

so the dealer called me and said it was the engine wiring harness...so my insurance had to get involved since it was due to the wreck and it took them a week to go look at it !!! i was pissed!!!! but it ended up costing them over a thousand dollars to fix...bet they wish they totaled it now lol....

so hopefully this fixes everything and i can enjoy my car again....and i would trade it in or sell it..but i have no credit and my parents would not co sign a loan ...so i got a gas card and im building credit that way

Sheesh dude... They really should of called it totaled. I don't know what to tell you but if it were me I'd try talking to my insurance company and tell them that since they didn't call it totaled you now have nothing but problem after problem. Maybe something can be worked out for a new car. It's worth a try dunno if it would work though. Please no calling me stupid or anything like last time. I'm just taking a guess I'm not saying I'm right or wrong. I don't know much about insurance companies.
