What happens when a heavy stone hits a car on the roof at a high speed? Check out this article to know what happened to the Toyota Innova Crysta in this accident.
Toyota cars are known to be durable and build to last. We have many examples of Toyota Innova, Etios, Corolla and even the Qualis running strong even after 10-15 years of ownership. Here’s an accident involving the Innova Crysta where a sharp and heavy rock fell on the roof of the MPV.
As you can see, the rock fell from a considerable height and that’s why it managed to cause so much damage. It pierced right through the roof and created a massive hole. Further, it also damaged the seat, seat cover upholstery and the door. Other than the massive hole, a huge dent can be seen on the right side of the roof.

Thankfully, no passenger was sitting on that side of the car. The one who was sitting was dropped off just 10 minutes ago. If anyone would have been sitting there, he could have gotten some serious injuries to the head. However, one thing that cannot be explained is how the front windscreen got a crack from this.
This accident happened in Sangla Valley, Himachal Pradesh. The owners quickly called up Toyota dealership and received an immediate response. All the decisions regarding insurance and the total cost of repairing were informed in a couple of hours itself. The dealership advised the owner to get the pillars replaced itself.
If any other car would have been in this place, it would have a similar damage. This accident does not clear anything about the build quality because we have to consider the velocity of the sharp rock when it fell from a hill. Along with that, we have once again got to see about the impressive dealership experience of Toyota.
