So, my DII is visiting the local dealership for its 30K lube and tune when I get a call from a sheepish service writer who is calling to say sorry about the accident your rig was involved in. My response, a resounding, �What the *#&#%!� Apparently a lot boy was driving a DI and his foot became stuck between the brake and accelerator causing that truck to not only collide with my front bumper, but push my tail end into a block wall. They�re not arguing about replacing the bumpers, however, I�m worried about the transmission. Anyone have any experience with a vehicle being pushed for a few feet while in park?
Thanks.

Eric, it should be ok but i would get in writing an extension on your warranty with zero deductible to cover any possible drive train dammage resulting from this |

Have your insurance company send their adjuster out to look at it before they even touch your truck! No hidden damage and a second, impartial opinion.

Eric,
Really make sure that you get covered for future problems that could be as a result of this crash.
Since the dealer crashed our car we have had a great number of problems eg. engine mountings, radiator, 3 exhaust manifold gaskets, catalytic converter, throttle body etc. etc. Fortunately they were dealt with under the 3 year garantee the car comes with but that expires in a few weeks time after which we will have to pay.
Good luck.
