A Rivian owner was in a fender bender. The repair bill was $42,000.::The repairs cost over half the starting price for the Rivian EV. The owner said he'd expected it wouldn't be cheap, but it was a "shocking number."

To remove rhose things probably disconnects them from other things, further increasing the amount of car that has to get fucked up before its fixed

I would disassemble and reassemble the entire thing for less than $42,000, down to the last bolt
