So a few days ago I was pulling out of a Wendy’s parking lot flipping a u-turn and POW…I slammed my car into this big ass concrete divider hitting it super hard
I didn’t even see it…it was on a gradual slope and I was partially blinded by the bright exterior lighting. There were a bunch of dings and chips on it, so obviously a lot of other people have done the same thing
anyway, the tire obv went flat immediately and I heard it grinding when I pulled into a parking spot to survey the damage
I called a tire shop a couple of miles away and he came right out to replace the tire but the entire wheelbase (front right) was still jacked up clearly off center and it was still grinding with the alignment all fucked up
I left it parked overnight and came back the next morning to get it to the shop to replace the control arm
These guys did their job and fixed the control arm and alignment for $350.00 which seemed reasonable enough, but as soon as I drove away now this is happening…
The traction control light starts flashing and the left side ABS starts grabbing and lurching and then will stop again
I managed to get it home after creeping along in the slow lane with my hazards on for almost 11 miles, but I can’t figure out what the problem is. It will go like 1/4 mile no problem and then the traction light starts blinking and it lurches hard multiple times
I’m thinking an electrical issue with the ABS sensor or the wheel bearings who the hell knows…its also grinding hard when I pull the wheel all the way to the right
fucking weird
advice welcome
TIA
