Urgent: 09 Accord - I hit a curb :( - Power steering and suspension issues
I was driving slowly and hit black ice. My winter tires had no chance , nor did I. I hit the curb at about 40 KM Hr ( drivers side wheel ). Now, my power steering is leaking severely from under neath. I'm assuming it's the rack and pinion that's been destroyed? Anyone have any idea what else I could have damaged? I hit directly on the wheel face. Is the rack and pinion hard to replace? Any help would be great,

Hi,
I'm not a mechanic but If you do end up needing to replace the rack and pinion, maybe this video can help
I've replaced my own shifter of an 02 Mercedes c230k which the shop wanted $900 for in labor!
Good luck!
