Advance Auto fried my car!

I'm sure they are insured as well. It should take some time, but as long as someone covers it, you get free new wiring!
I was reading up on the topic here. Recently there was a 997 "totalled" because of this. Meaning it costs more to fix the wiring than the car is worth.

Who would have thought wiring was that expensive...

I'm amazed that it can even happen. Fitting one of our batteries the wrong way round would mean the terminals are closer to the fender and it would be a real stretch to get the live cable to fit the negative terminal. Surely a fitter with any common sense would realize something's wrong before carrying on!

They were trying to avoid an insurance claim, that's for sure. Who can blame them? I just hope once they realize how much this is going to cost and a claim is warranted, it doesn't hold up getting my car back. Insurance companies very often drag their feet.

Okay, got the car back yesterday and good news. It was all inline fuses that were fried not components. 415 bucks and Advance paid for it all over the phone with a credit card. They didn't even ask to see the invoice first. Funny thing is, I got in the car yesterday afternoon and it almost wouldn't start again! That's why I got the battery in the first place! I guess I have a different problem.
