Hit A Massive Pothole.... Fender Damage
Hit A Massive Pothole.
Made A Left Turn And Pulled Off The Road To The Right To Check The Car Out And Entire Fender Got Bent From It And The Bumper Is Loose. The Window Washer Fluid Reservoir Also Got Knocked Loose And Was Hitting The Wheel. Significant Damage Going On Here: Going To Turn It Into Insurance, However Aside From Body Damage Anyone Have Any Advice On What To Make Sure They Inspect? These Are My Thoughts: -tie Rods -control Arm -control Arm Bushings -rim -tire -wheel Alignment Appreciate Any Help Here

Wow that’s allot of damage from a pot hole. It could have bent the unibody also. I’m sure they’ll check that. Maybe put it on a frame machine to make sure the car is ok.

Similar pothole contact with our '12WRX destroyed a front wheel bearing and tire side wall. Also knocked the toe out of alignment.
Stock suspension at that point in time with Continental DWS-06 tires. |
