Default RE: Found the problem (HELP)

i got hit on the highway from the right side. the truck knocked my alignment out, bad. my alignment will never be able to line up perfectly again without replacing alot of front end parts, $$$$$$$. my car rides fine, just doesnt track perfectly straight, good enough to where its not too noticable.

just so you know, sports cars usually never drive the same when they were involved in accidents(bend frames, suspension, steering...)

Getting it checked out and repaired would probably be more than your insurance deductible. Do the smart thing, have the insurance adjuster check it out, get it repaired properly by a pro and pay your part in the form of a deductible and slightly higher rates. In the long run, it will probably be cheaper andit will definitely be done right.

Wow. This is really scary. Some people have posted its not a big-deal and some posting that i should have my insurance pay for it and do it professionaly etc... I'm going to take it to the dealer tommorrow and get it checked out. Hopefully i just have to replace that A-arm[:@][:@][:@]
