Fd3s Fire/ Icbc Claim
 

Hey guys new to this forum sorta seeking out some advice or if someone else as dealt with similar issues..
Anyway I bought an 93 Fd about 2 months ago. Drove it most of the time until about three weeks ago it caught on fire. The whole engine bay is basically gone, but the interior and back end seem to be in good shape. Although my car was valued at $9800, Icbc denied my claim last week saying I provided a false statement and I now basically get nothing but the car back. Has anyone has this happen before or have any suggestions on what to do? or if the car is even worth anything now..
Thanks In Advance!

First post.... :suspicious:

Let's see some pics

what were you accused of lying about?!...

So how did it catch on fire?

Rotaries don't just do that.

First thing, find a lawyer. Don't elaborate on a public forum unless you have the facts to back you up.

Caught on fire, how?:badpokerface:

Op hit Rotary Vtak..

fuel leak?

fuel leak getting onto the down pipe = fire.

was that a JDM FD?

Most JDM cars that are imported to Canada are ones that failed Shaken(Japanese Government Inspection).

Black jdm fd with bronze cr kai's?

subbed.

Iirc the Fds were really bad for splitting fuel lines and having them leak onto the exhaust manifold. So if the OP was running stock lines, my guess is that tofu would be correct in his guess. This is why I like the FBs :D lol

Interested to hear what ICBC is saying OP gave a false statement of though...

OP blew up engine, then set fire to car to get money out of it?

:badpokerface:

seriously>?

leaky pulsation damper or fuel lines is my guess how it burnt down. sucks man

My buddies fd went engine bay caught fire. Investigation found fuel line leaking and he was paid out for the vehicle

This is why I have a fire extinguisher in my FD... Reminded me to test it before summer gets here.
But what was the "false statement" ICBC is referring to?

Unless this guy comes back to follow up, i'm assuming it was a self torch job and ICBC called him on it.:suspicious:

I thought about it more than once when my FD's engine blew... :ilied:

...and now he's here asking, "how can I convince them otherwise?"

Send them a link to this thread! That should help... or maybe I should send the link to my friend who used to work in ICBC's fraud dept. and now is an adjuster. I'm sure he still has friends there, and really... how many FD's have caught on fire in the last little while? Easy to find who the OP is.

pics or it didn't happen lol :fullofwin:

Exactly.

At the face of the revscene interrogation team
