Default Power Steering / ABS?!?

I Was In Dirty Jersey And It Was Raining
I Took A Turn Off The Off ramp Way to Quick
And Smashed My Front Left Wheel Into
The Curb And The Car Went Up The Curb
And Then I Drove It Back Off
It Was So Bad That The Steelie Bent
And Was Grinding On The Wheel Well
I Put On The Spare And My Power Steering Is On And Works
When The Wheels Point all The Way To The Right But Once A
Quarter In The Other direction It Sticks And The Steering
Becomes Tense And Sticks

This Also Lead To The Idea That My ABS Should Have Kicked On
And They Didnt I Breaked And They Locked Up And Caused My Front
Wheels To Just Glide On The Nice Sheet Of Rain On The Floor

Any Ideas On What To Look For????

holly crap!! you sir need mircosoft word or some ****,
next time slow the hell down! and dont slam on the brakes. it might be hard to understand but your actully makeing it worse, due now they are locked up and your sliding and not in control of the car.
i got money on you supension is trashed, pull the wheel, off and look for bent control arm tie rod. messed up axle things like that.
