help diagnosing front end suspension problem.

I have a 2002 Ford Focus. Yesterday i slid into a curb going about 15MPH.

Now the car does not turn properly now going over 10-15MPH. Also there is a shaking feeling that comes from the passenger side front end(same side i hit the curb on.)

Suggestions on what is causing this? I'm just trying to get some ideas on what it could possibly be so i can figure out how much it may cost me to get it fixed.

thanks alot guys!

Re: help diagnosing front end suspension problem.

Most likely you damaged a tie rod or something in the rack and pinion aka steering.

Re: help diagnosing front end suspension problem.

Probably bent the front end. If you can find a shop that does nothing but frront end work they can bend the front end back to specs with hydraulic jacks. Off hand I'd say say the McPherson strut is bent and the lower control arm and the tie rod end. It could get expensive replacing parts. Best way to go is a shop where that do only front end work.
