my car understeered into a curb...
my car understeered in the rain going about 40, i was going into a turn, not a 90 degree, but merging into traffic, and my car just kept going straight, i couldnt slow down in time and i hit the curb pretty hard, my front drivers side wheel is sitting at an angle now, its bent inwards. now what does a front axle look like? and a lower control arm?
is its easy to fix?
should i take it to the dealers?
any suggestions?
