ran over a decent sized rock, car pulling to the right

the rock was on the left side, now my car is pulling to the right. so what could be the worst possible thing that could be wrong? i'm hoping its just an alignment, just dropped the car off.

These Electronic steering racks go out a lot easier than the old mechanical type.

On the bright side, it didn't take out your front fascia, the only person who knows there's a problem is you!

Maybe someone is telling you need to upgrade to performance control arms.

This makes sense, but why both sides? Previous damage?

Maybe 3-4 inches around, I only saw it in my rear view mirror after it was too late, it must have fell off a work truck or something, it was in the middle of a city block so I wasn’t expecting it

Yeah luckily it was small enough to go under the bumper, yet still managed to do this damage somehow..

Yeah that’s what I wasn’t sure about, but since they’re only 80 bucks a piece I don’t mind changing them both
