  • It is great you are resolving the issue in the street to avoid this series of pit holes causing damage to other vehicle however it does little to help my situation. As a result of colliding with this pot hole my car has encountered sever damage resulting in my tire needing to be replaced and wheel requiring repair. I am due a service and have no doubt it will also identify my wheels need realigned as a result. Please let me know how I will be compensated for this. Also please call or email me direct to pick this up.

    Kind regards,

    David
