mash Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 The exact same thing happened to my car. She, my wife, hit the curb at about 60 ks and the car jump over the service road strip!!! The front left tire hit the guard wall and the suspension, arms broke. I got it fixed, but the wheel is still off center and it is sort of inside. My dad got the car fixed at some dude, who said he would do it quick. I think he totally stuffed it up and ripped me off. Does anyone know why the wheel is off-center and inside? Is it because the parts he replaced are not geniune? Wife was ok, just in shock i guess. I think she now understands that cars arent meant to go airborne Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6548-why-you-shouldnt-let-your-wife-drive-the-car-tro-the-christmas-party/#findComment-97877 Share on other sites More sharing options...
meggala Posted November 26, 2002 Author Share Posted November 26, 2002 your sub frame might be bent you should get a 4 wheel alingnment done Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/6548-why-you-shouldnt-let-your-wife-drive-the-car-tro-the-christmas-party/#findComment-97897 Share on other sites More sharing options...
mash Posted November 26, 2002 Share Posted November 26, 2002 Do you think the four wheel alignment will fix it, even if the wheel is visibly pushed back and inside. I mean if you look at the car from the back, you think that there is no left wheel, you cant see it.
