Hey! So I had my car winched out of the mud over the summer after swerving to avoid something in the road.
Basically they tied a rope to the wheel spoke and winched the car out. I involved me holding the wheel at full turn on each side. Because of how much force I had to put on the wheel, I’m unsure if this would have bent something. It was slow and gradual.
There doesn’t seem to be any strange tire wear and the alignment is still fine per the dealer.
The only oddity I noticed is that the steering wheel is easy to make bounce back and forth at low speeds but I’m not sure if it always did that.
I drift and need slight micro corrections on the freeway, but it seems to only have jolts to one side or the other when I’m going over road bumps or ruts.
Anyone think this winching could have messed anything up?
