hit the g...=[ (pics)

so this afternoon around 4 i was driving to my friends house and i was goan turn in a residentail area all of a sudden my power teering died and slip light came on and i ran into a curb...well no too much damage i guess. i think teh controll arm on teh driver side is bent its still driveable but kinda merges to the left when driving straight and the bumper is damaged anyways heres a few pics...

Any reason for the power steering to die? If it was infinitis fault, i assume you could settle something with them.

if u hit pot hole hard enough, u can do some damage to the power steering pump. it happened to me before... I hit a deep pot hole and walla~ No power steering and slip light came on. your case might be different, but just lettin you guyz know. AVOID pot hole at all cost! it's kind of scarey when u lose power steering while u driving...

Bad day for G's. I was sitting at a red light when WHAM! some guy in his honda accord plows right into the back of me. Now comes the hassle of insurance and repairs and all the other bs that goes along with it. Good luck with repairs.

Uhmmm, ^ that would be like as if the power steering failed? You need to go to the gym more often (just jk) I don't understand what caused your accident. I know how you feel. My G isn't going too well either. Sorry to hear about the demage to your G.

Truly sorry to see all of the damage. I trust the service techs find some sort of glitch with the power steering. Thank goodness you were not at speed on the freeways.
