Accident waiting to happen...and then it did.

A tracking device was installed in my car when I switched to an insurer that have a tracking device as prerequisite. The tracking company sent a guy this morning to fix said device because I got many notifications from Tracker that my battery is disconnected. I was driving my car many of those times. When he was finished fixing the problem he said the tracker was earthed the wrong way and it could have damaged electronics in my car. Well, it did. On the 15th of June I went right into a low wooden pole, the type you can't see from behind the steering wheel when you get close. My car sensors did not warn me because the sensors in my grill did not work. The pole broke my car's grill and spoiler. After the accident I tested it myself by putting a soft bag the height of the pole in front of my car and it did not warn me and I drove into the bag. Now when the guy from Tracker left I tested it the same way again and this time it worked. The tracker was earthed the right way and did not interfere with the electronics in the sensor anymore. I have to pay an excess of R7000 to have the grill and spoiler fixed. I think Tracker owe me.
