Body shop quoted a new rocker panel and battery replacement(26k). Drove the car for a month with the damage with no issues. Had the battery inspected at my own cost by Tesla, no issues were found, not even a scratch. I fought hard with the insurance company to fix the car but they didn't care what I had to say.

^ how much did ICBC give you for it? Why fight ICBC ... did they offer you a lowball price? Just take the $$ and be happy.

Sucks dude.

How about buying it out? If they're giving you good money for compensation and they think it's worthless because the battery's no good - but you know it's fine - is it maybe worth taking the money and fixing just the rocker panel? Or heck even just bondoing it and calling it a day. Car still works and drives great right? Lol

Which bodyshop? Can they show you why they think it needs replacement? If there's a warranted cause then I would agree cause a damaged battery may still work, but it would be a ticking time bomb. This isn't a gas car with a dented footwell we are talking about.

This may also very well be true. There's good parts on that car and they can fix many more other Teslas. ICBC is pretty shrewd.

If i did it would have a rebuilt title and that would void the remaining factory warranty. Not to mention diminish resale value. They actually told me to go buy it at auction when I asked.

Private insurance. I get 1 free at fault claim so no fucked insurance rates. They offered me a pretty good settlement too.

Was the payout enough to pay off the loan? If you have one? considering Tesla values are kinda wonky.

Its kinda shitty to get a model 3/y written off right now cause the new ones are expensive cause of the tariffs unless you got replacement insurance
