My wife was involved in a rear end accident July 27th or there about. The trunk, bumper, and rear panels over the rear wheels where also affected. To say the least it was a pretty good rear end job. After four weeks of rear tail light problems following my wife back to the repair shop that warrantied there work, I noticed her rear tire was bowed out (tweeked). I disputed this with a mercury inspector and the shop owner and they were convinced that the tire was not tweeked as a result of this accident because they could not see any knicks or scratches on the control arms. Does anything need to rub up or hit the control arms in order for them to become damaged? My thought that impact alone and her car skidding from the impact could have done this. Just my two cents anyone with this type of expertise would greatly be appreciated. I meet with the adjusters supervisor on Wed. and I want to come with a loaded gun 8).
