Post subject: | I hit a curb D: |
It's freezing rain here in Kansas right now, i was pulling into my neighborhood when i slid into a curb going roughly 10mph. The force was enough where it knocked a 32oz cup of water out of my cup holder. I bent the front passenger side wheel but the tire is still inflated When i put it in drive and let off the brake, once it starts moving i feel intermediate wobble on the right side and the car pulls to the right. I straightened out the steering wheel, the driver side tire is straight and the passenger side tire is slightly angled outward. I have 4 fingers of clearance from the fender to the back of the tire on the driver side. i only have two fingers of clearance on the passenger side. I doubt its JUST out of alignment. Nothing appeared to be out of place but its dark out... IDEAS? |

Could be many things,from a bent LCA,bent cradle,or bent tie rod ends or a combo of all of them.Have a shop check it out and yes you will need a alignment.Just remember if it does not look bent does not mean it isn't so don't freak out or whine if it takes a few trips in the shop to get it all fixed or something else is found bent after the repair and on the alignment rack. |
