Default Got Ran Off The Road!! HELP!

i just got ran off the road by some jacka$$ and hit a small curb and my front right tire seems to be sticking out a little bit on the bottom, and my wheel alignment seems to be off, you think this will be bad?

Take it to a shop. You don't want that tire blowing on you later on.[:@] No sense taking any chances.

Hopefully it's just the tire and some alignment work.

i think you should carry a weapon, like a harpoon gun mounted on top of your car so this kind of thing doesnt happen...

Well I would take it to a tire shop if it were me. It's not like the dealer should do this under warranty as it isn't due to faulty craftsmanship or material.I could be wrong but I think you would have to pay either way.

Would tire/alignment be covered by warranty if you hit a curb? I hope I'm wrong, but my guess would be no. You'll probably be paying something out of pocket no matter where you go.

Do you think totaling your car would be covered under warranty? I didn't think so...

[sm=icon_rofl.gif]insurance would be about the only place you would see any compensation, but the work isnt going to meet your deductible problem....


And becuase we like to hear about this kind of ****, why were you ran of the road anyway??
