1995 Saturn Sc....In dire need of help

[taters086]

I have a 1995 Saturn Sc1 recently put in ditch. The car being plastic there were no body damages, though the rear passenger side tire came off the rim, a spare was put on then later the origional tire. The car was pulled out of the ditch with a tractor, and im afraid that the tractor or the initial impact may have ripped in half a part that connects the exhaust manifold and the cadalytic converter...please, does anyone know what this part is and how much it would cost to fix...this would be a great help because i have just begun driving and know very little about cars....also the car leans to one side could this just be the tires or the axils...or does it possible just need aligned?...please help very confussed

You need to inspect your car. Your car should NOT lean to one side. An alignment may help, however it doesnt take much force to bend something on the car. Best thing to do is have a friend, Tech teacher (you said you just started driving so Im assuming your in Highschool), or parent get the car on jackstands, take the tires off and do a thorough investigation of it. Check the suspension in the rear in since thats where the tire came off. I suspect something may be bend or damaged.

The part that i believed ripped is the Flex pipe. Its part of the Down pipe. You can probally find one online, though you might be able to get a muffler shop to weld it back on for you.
