recently i ran into a curb at about 35 mph. i had hoped that my tire just needed to be realigned but the mechanic told me it was more serious. the mechanice could not help me because the frame is bent. the lower half of the tire shifted inward about 1.5inches and is not aimed straight. i need to get to a shop that works on frames. Im just wondering if there are any estimates as so how much this will cost me...

 

A little more info would help a little more.
Is it a front tire?
Is just the subframe bent?
Is just the lower control arm bent?

 

the mechanic only said the frame was bent. and it's the driver's front tire

 

The subframe can be replaced. Not to sure of the cost though. The Dealer or Some one with an engine support can do it.

 

Check with you insurance if the cost is more than your deductable. If it's covered under comprehensive it will not imact you rate. I think you probably hit a pot hole though not a curb.
