2021 Badlands Rear Ended and in Rough Shape – Repairable?!
My trunk hatch, passenger side tail light/license plate light/reflector, rear bumper, passenger side wheel well trim, quarter panel all got damaged. Initially, the car wouldn’t start or respond to any key fob buttons, but then a few hours later it would start.

Furthermore, anyone know what parts availability…

Water pump replaced
Because of the known issue of no heat at idle. Anyone have it fail again? Between this and the RDU rebuild and service advisor comment I’m not so sure about keeping it past warranty.
