A Rivian owner was in a fender bender. The repair bill was $42,000.::The repairs cost over half the starting price for the Rivian EV. The owner said he'd expected it wouldn't be cheap, but it was a "shocking number."

Pretty sure this is the same with most vehicles, there's one piece of metal that goes the length of the roof.

Honestly, this just sounds like people out of touch with how expensive the repair process is.
