Control Arm in your front suspension might be gone, if it is then its a costly fix job. more so then just an alignment. If there was body damage I would say talk to Phoenix but I dont have a super trusted Mechanical shop yet which I can stand up and say its the top quality.



sorry to hear
[ ] Winter tires: Michelin X-ice + steelies ($500. 80% thread left.)
did you have those tires installed?

Yup that's your lower control arms. My friend hit a nice pothole a few weeks ago and it snapped on him. He too had that screeching too. But it most definatly sounds like your control arm. Get under and take a quick peek at it.

so i brought it into cdn tires to fix it so i can at least drive it home.


they pretty much straightened the inner tie rod and did a wheel alignment. cost me $252.54

when i drive the car right now, my steering wheel is still a little bit shaky. when it is around 80km/hr. its quiet shaky. i still havent tried high way yet....

omg this is bs
