04 Solara - Question on SRS light
All,
I was rearended on the off ramp of a highway earlier today at a fairly low speed. It appeared there was minimal damage to the other car and did not notice any damage to the back of my car. We exchanged info anyways, took pictures and I had her write up a statement acknowledging that she had hit me as well as the cars involved, location, date and time. Then also took her license plate, DL # and phone number in case something came up later.
On my drive home I noticed the SRS warning light (I believe this is the airbag) and another light that said Passenger Airbag 'OFF" were on. My airbags did not deploy but these lights were not on before. Could getting rearended have caused this? Is there a way I can handle this without having to take it in? I'd prefer to have no costs just in case the lady tries to fight me on paying though I feel she will and should if I requested. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide!
