x2 on this.
Glad to see you are okay. Happy Birthday as well. Make sure you keep up on your insurance, you should have plenty of coverage as most dealerships have coverage on vehicles that leave the lot that stays in place for approximately 72 hours to ensure that your own coverage gets into place.
Good luck with it.

Happy birthday and I hope all goes well dealing with the insurance, I have had my own dealings with uninsured motorists but one went to jail for being here illegal.

Glad your ok...
I'll try and keep it short.... get a Lawyer ... even though your claim is against your Insurance company I would..
My son was in an accident 5 years ago, not the driver, the insurance company's wouldn't talk to me.. (son had a dislocated shoulder and needed surgery and I was getting him taken care off of my insurance and then trying to recoup my fees.... etc... not smart as I now know) a lawyer called me that was representing another client that was in the same accident. I had no other option but to talk with him,, and I did hire him. I am so glad I did.... my sons shoulder was fixed and 5 years later is good....
Basically over 16K of medical bills was settled for around $2500.... which of course they had to pay... not me.. and there is no way they would have dropped 16K down to 2.5K..... of course my insurance would have help some of that bill but since it was an accident they were now saying my insurance was secondary etc................... it was a mess.....
There are so many loop holes that we don't know about, and there are multiple coverage’s that you may have if you have more than one vehicle.. do you have uninsured motorists.... ????
etc.................
and the funny thing is that Insurance company's talk to lawyers easier then settling without them... seems weird but that's my experience.
Get a Lawyer... sadly I am now a believer in that system were I once agued against it... The insurance company's bring a lot of this upon them shelves by how they handle our claims.........
(I am not one to chase money in these situations but like I said insurance companies don't talk to individuals very well and when they do they could care less...)
good Luck.
and I'm sure you'll Jeep On soon...
PS; what did you get for you 2011 Rubi?

1) Glad you're OK. God Bless.
2) Happy Birthday!
3) Sometimes Lawyers are necessary evils; this is one of those times just to make sure you don't get a random huge bill from all this six months down the road.
4) That Jeep held up quite well for a 40mph side impact.
5) Glad you're OK! That's the most important.
