The repair shop said the bags have several triggers and the hit has to be in a certain direction and rate of speed. My hit was off

Pinstripe, welcome to the forum, or perhaps I should say welcome back. Sorry to hear about your accident, I'm assuming you came out of it OK. Can't believe your airbags did not activate with that much damage.

center and up to the drivers side. No injuries except I moved my knee cap. I lost the bumper, hood left fender, grill, radiator, fan assembly, one headlight, upper left frame arm and the list goes on and on. It's the frame arm that has been a real problem. It's not sold anywhere and had to come from Mexico and took almost a month. Since most of the sheet metal hangs from it nothing can be done. The other problem is they have to pull the engine to put in the arm.
To add insult to injury the only rental available is a Ford Focus. If you ever question buying a PT take a Focus for a test drive, that will put your mind at ease.

I am sorry to hear of your accident.. I am glad you walked or limped away from it. [b}] And you are right the Ford Focus is a POS... I had one for a rental while my PT was in the shop.. I hated it..
And GT Cruiser don't worry you won't void the warranty by not having the dealer change the oil,because it is in the body shop.. I change mine myself, or let the dealer do it(service contract=free) or have jiffy lube do it. However it gets done I just keep the reciept of it.. And since your PT is sitting it can wait.. it is 3months or 3000 miles.. which ever comes first..
