Battle scarred Grand Voyager

When it comes to an MPV, you cannot compromise on safety. As a people mover, safety is of paramount importance. The following pictures were taken off a Chrysler Grand Voyager broadsided by a monstrous ten wheeler truck.


Do note that the left side of the Grand Voyager caved in from on impact of the crash.


Part of the roof collapsed.

The impact of the collison tore across the doors severely damaging the left side of the vehicle. However the chassis remains intact.

Another view of badly damaged sliding doors. Note that the extrusion bars prevented the sliding doors from bottoming in. The seats remain anchored.

The front passenger was injured but the owner escaped unscathed. The vehicle has been totalled and the owner is back to buying a new Grand Voyager. It has to be because if it had been a Japanese MPV, it'd have been a different story. Sometimes it takes pictures like these to grimly remind us that safety cannot be compromised.
