Coilover test?
so I took my car to my mechanic to check why my coilovers/suspension are squeaking and he test drove my car over deep Chicago potholes to listen to the noise it was making.i feel like my car swerved a bit now afterwards 🤦*♂️ Should I be worried about my coilovers? Are they made to take deep impact? Or I am over exaggerating? Btw I have flex Zs coilovers

There are a lot of components on the vehicle that can be damaged by that sort of abuse. Bushings, tie rod ends, sway bar end links, wheel bearings, struts, etc.
When was the last time you had an alignmemt correction done, they usually spot all the worn components when trying to align the vehicle because the numbers won't hold steady after adjustment.
