Dealing with Potholes

Even the most careful drivers are surprised when they suddenly drive over a pothole. Potholes seem unavoidable and can cause a lot of damage to your car. One study from the American Automobile Association (AAA) found pothole damage costs U.S. drivers $3 billion annually. Over the last five years alone, 16 million drivers have been affected averaging $306 in vehicle repair cost. Damage can affect your tires (puncture, damage, or wear), wheel rims, shocks and struts, suspension, steering, exhaust, and engine. Some of this damage won’t show signs until the vehicle is inspected.
