my hatch owned by pothole!!! what can i do?
ok i live in springhill like 45min north of tampa and i was on my way home from work and i was making a right turn going 5-10 mph and my left front tire went into this pot hole and continued to stay there and the rest of my car kept going... so im sitting in this busy intersection at 5:30 pm immobile the car wont budge i try and open my door and it will open about 1 inch thats it, i climb out the passenger door and look at what happened. It looks like my wheel stayed there and ripped out the ball joints and axle... the police officers show up call a tow truck ect and it looks like i need to replace the drivers side door, fender ,side skirt, lower control arm (b/c it was grinding on the road), upper and lower ball joints, im going to need to get a allignment a new axle and a drivers side tie rod a new strut and im out $90 for the tow truck... so has anyone else had something like this happen to them?? with what results and time table? did the county pay??
im really irritated right now so any one that wants to just bullshit please refrain yourself from this post... anyone with helpful advice i WOULD BE VERY THANKFUL...
thanks Dave
