[2006Driver]

I have an '06 TL w/165K miles, car was parked & hit in the driver front quarter panel by a UPS truck. Thought damage was all cosmetic, as I was able to drive home, BUT, the next morning, after a brief drive the car wouldn't start!

I know the starter is old, but could the impact have sent the starter to a quicker death, giving its location?

Any thoughts or advice is appreciated.. accident

Thanks!

I've seen accidents kill batteries before. Might check that. I'd have a shop diagnose and fix it at UPS' expense though, since the accident was their fault.
