Front right went up a curb
It's been awhile since my last post -- Thankfully, everything has been peachy...until today. I had a dumb bunny drive the car and she went up a curb making a U-turn. Should have been a Y-turn.
I am unable to drive the vehicle. Is there anything I should immediately look for? Perhaps have my mechanic check it out? Thanx in advance!

Need a little more info on what was hit (just the wheel or the subframe gearbox, sump etc), how hard was it hit, and you say you can not drive the car is this because of the hit and is something broken?

Sorry. I'm not able to drive due to recent injury. Thx. Speed was from a dead stop, doing a usual u-turn....perhaps 5-10 mph?
The lower control arm fulcrum shaft is the hard part to replace if it is slightly 'Z' shaped. I have had to lower the rear portion of the subframe and cut the shaft into pieces to get the lower arm off and the shaft out of the frame.
The oil pan is in the way of the shaft removal and the engine must be suspended to lower the subframe.
Maybe nothing major is damaged.
