Does Honda Civic 2013 LX have Event data recorder or something that can record accident events?
I got involved in accident where other party was at fault. Now, he is not admitting and not paying for the repair through his insurance. I will be going to court for that and I need some kind of evidence. I heard about EDR. That will be useful evidence in my case. Can you please tell me how I can retrieve any useful data from my Civic LX 2013 so I can show the prove in the court?
Added (1). The problem is that at the time of the accident I only had liability insurance and my car wasn't insured. Will they still be able to help me on this? The other person truck is totally fine.
Get the help of your insurance company. See a mechanic to retrieve the "freeze frame" data in your car. I doubt if it would help much.
According to the first source, your 2013 Civic does have an event data recorder. Accessing the data is a legal issue and not technically simple - see the second source. Without the support of your insurance company it will likely be ignored anyway.
All cars made after 1996 do.
some record more than others.
- Have you seen any road-accident occurring before your very eyes? Lately, in our area, a speeding Honda-City car hit a bike-driver; The bike-driver was sent flying to a height and then fell hard on the coal-tar road, and died after a few hours in hospital;
- I can't find a 2012-14 Honda CRV or a 2013-15 Toyota RAV4 online that is < 15k, has < 50k miles and was never damaged or in an accident? A couple of weeks ago, my car (a 2009 crv) got totaled in an accident and am looking for a small, reliable suv (that has the same cargo space as my old car) so I've came across these two vehicles on various websites. Insurance gave my family ~9,000 for the automobile. Does anybody know if and how I can find one offline or for much less money based on my criteria?
- 2007 Honda CR-V can't open spare tire compartment after accident? I got rear ended. The tailgate is toast, bumper doesn't look too bad but I can no longer open the spare tire compartment because the cover is jammed shut. The spare tire well looks fine from the outside though. Is this evidence of frame damage? Is my vehicle totalled?
- Event data recorders, do they record video footage? While my car was parked, someone hit my car and did not leave any information. I have a 2015 Honda Civic with an Event Data Recorder. I'm wondering if that could have recorded the moment when my car was hit and possibly the vehicle who did it?
