Note: These are pictures of the wheels with the steering wheel directing them straight.


Questions:
What might be the damages?
Are the damages major?
Will the damages be costly to repair?

Thank you very much

Regards,

cona

Count on a new wheel. Other than that get an alignment and tell them what happened and to check it over. Hard to say could be the only damage or could be more...

Does the wheel vibrate when driving?

May have only knocked it out of alignment. Get it checked out.

as informed on the other thread you created, first pic already show sway bar not connected and bent LCA... many other parts could be jeopardized as well. just trake to mechanic. unless you can telepathically show us your car.
