@ogsmechanics: £80,000+ of Kia & BYD WRITTEN OFF… We Fixed BOTH! Is Insurance BROKEN?! 😳💸 #K#KiaEV6B#BYDSealEVRepair

Banish :

Why dot they put the cooling on top

EMDEE :

I ain't never getting an EV even if it's free 🤮🤮

Al3442 :

The battery issue isn’t a surprise, OEM protocols are probably that the full battery needs to be replaced in addition to the damaged parts rather than just the damaged battery modules. Insurance needs to follow protocol. I don’t agree with it but it does mean you could get a bargain if you know what you’re looking at.

mike :

No wonder insurance companies are charging more

Kyle Warrington :

Do you sell any repaired ev cars ?

Adrian Coachman 📚 🦞 :

so easy to write an electric car off

TruckerChips :

its too easy to write the car off now days hence increase in higher premiums

mawrouic :

bingo, very expensive for the nature

SamTheStaffieBullTerrier :

thats mainly why EV insurance is expensive....insurers bin the car if there is any chance the battery has been damaged.

Mark Oldfield :

i dented my exhaust 20 years ago on my diesel car... guess what? Yes it's still working, hasn't written the car off and passes annual safety examination 🤔

Dash-Driver EMS :

This is why everyone’s insurance is going up if drive over a stone in a EV and hit the underside - bump write off

marcus_rashford_reborn678 :

how much did the repair cost

PNJeddy - The Lone 🐺 Wolf :

Write-offs mean to add to statistical figures and to justify charging everyone higher premiums

ogsmechanics :

£80,000+ worth of EVs WRITTEN OFF… yet BOTH were repairable?! 😳💸 Are insurers too scared of EV batteries — or are these write-offs justified? YES or NO? 👇

ᛒᚢᛋᚱᚢᛁ :

And soon the government r gonna force us and add subscriptions 😭

fightingforengland :

Who’d of thought it was a good idea to put the most expensive and volatile part of the car a mere inches above the road AND incorporate vital parts into a thin aluminum sheet!

michaelcurrie21 :

The insurance company will always go on the side of safety and cost , e.v. vehicles have a reputation for going up in smoke so they take no chances plus they usually have a deal with the salvage companies to pay a decent percentage of the value of the vehicles no matter the condition.

Bigscarydude♡~♡ :

But no warranty at all anymore

Antony Sanson :

You have to question, does this also increase the insurance for ICE car owners because the EV car write-offs are so much expensive than ICE cars and more common 🤔

Gazza🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 :

The insurance companies only use oem parts that’s why they are written off.

Leo The Jr :

I love great mechanics like this. There isn’t enough though which is why they are written off. In time it will be so much easier to keep an EV running and it will take more to get it written off. I love my EVs!

the_original_jaw :

Looks like forks when it’s been picked up on the byd

Primary Heat Gas/plumb/heat :

how much is EV insurance, they way they seem to write off cars will start pushing it up if hasn’t already

Loopy's Assistant :

Selling them after they have been written off and getting insurance for them would surely be a struggle 🥺
