My story is sad but might help- one of you.
My Kia Soul EV was hit by an 18-wheel truck in a hit-and-run on the freeway (repair dude said the driver probably didn't even know he hit me).
It bashed in my passenger front with damage. I brought the car in on 2/26/15 it is now 3/13/15 and still not repaired. Why you ask?
The first hood that was delivered to replace mine --- was shipped damaged. The second one -- same (folder over in corner). A third one was checked at the dealership - it too was damaged in transit. Supposedly those are the only hoods for the EV in north america. Therefore, I am going to have to wait until May to get my hood replaced.
One of the problems with being an early adopter -- parts aren't easy to come by.
