Many service manuals that have seen hav a set of measurements that a tech can take to see if the car is still straight,

Many seem to be diagonals that should be equal.

Unfortunately, some care chassis are not symmetrical and one needs these figures to check the car properly.

Ask a good body shop or a dealer if they know how to measure your car.

I agree with James. Ask a good body shop or perhaps a dealer how to measure your car.

Question: How hard was the car hit? If the the damage to the fender and door look minor then chances are good the frame wasn’t affected.

One more point if the car isn’t totaled. Since she was at fault, get her insurance company to pay for a full 4 wheel alignment. There is a good chance the alignment will be off.

Will I buy another Volvo??? We'll see....
