I came over a blind overpass going a little above the speed limit to stopped traffic. Couldn't stop in time. This was July of 2012 so no parts in the US or even part diagrams for repair. Had 2 waiting periods of 6-8 weeks waiting for parts from Japan since they didn't know everything they needed and then a seatbelt was defective (that only took 2 days to get thankfully). Got the car back in October 2012.

Then someone broke into my car smashing my driver window in Jan 2013 which required a 3 week wait for parts after 2 weeks of me waiting to get paid. And then I had to find time to install it so I think it sat for one more week.

After that I went to have my DRLs disabled but my model had a glitch which turned made the high beams activate as DRLs after and the TSB was for a new ECU. The ECU took a week to get and then the one they got was defective. Installed it but my keys wouldn't mate. Then the car wouldn't leave park. 2 days for install and 3 days of diagnostics followed by 2 days of waiting for the new ECU and 2 more days to install and test to ensure everything worked. All to have my DRLs turned off
