sunnystar is on a distinguished road
Question Steering problem...need urgent help please!

Today I didn't notice the the "black ice" on the road while turning right at aound 15 mph.The X's left front wheel hit the curb quite hard (but not that hard because neither me and my wife thought the hit would brought so much damage). Then the 4x4 warning light on. I managed to drive it back home (about half a mile) but the steering wheel was very unstable and the car drove like with a flat tire.

I will bring the X in tomorrow morning, but I am really worried about the damage I've done to it. The left front wheel is very badly misaligned (see the pics), is this a sign of more serious damage to the suspension etc? Has anyone had such experience before and what's the best/worst outcome? Thanks a lot.

Tom
