had a snow storm yesterday and was talkin on the phone while driving and slid right into a curb. the wheel has been pushed almost all the way back to the wheel well. when i drive it pulls extremely hard to the right and the sterring is kind sloppy (loose) when i turn u can hear the tire riubbing on the car. i assume the axel is broken but i was wonderin wat esle u think could be wrong and how much somethin like this would cost me u guys think. and it was the driveer side thta got damged thanks..

instead of trying to guess take it to a suspension shop and they'll tell you what needs to be replaced and for how much.if you want to do it yourself take the tire off and you'll see what's broken.if it's more than just a snapped tie rod might be looking at the axle, control arm, shock etc - expensive stuff all together.
