Potholes can cause serious damage to your car's: tires, wheels, steering
and suspension, and alignment. Potholes occur when water permeates the
pavement, usually through a crack, and softens the soil beneath it,
creating a depression in the surface of the street. Many potholes appear
during winter and spring months because of freeze-thaw cycles, which
accelerate the process. Potholes can also be prevalent in areas with
excessive rainfall and flooding.
If you’ve hit a pothole, it can
be difficult to know if your vehicle has been damaged in the process.
Have a professional technician check out the car and make the necessary
repairs to ensure safety and reliability.
