We have a 1996 Plymoth Voyager that wrecked into the curb during a bad snow storm. The right front wheel is slanted at a downward angle. I have replaced the CV axle which was broken, but the rotor is still slanted at a downward angle. I have removed the strut and the coil to check for any damage, but I cannot see anything wrong with it. Can you please give me any ideas on what you may think is wrong with it. What can I be over looking?

Replace the strut. The amount it's bent just above the two lower bolt holes is WAY too small to see. The exception is if one lower hole has been oblonged already or has been replaced. If that hole is oval-shaped, that is the alignment adjustment and it may have just slipped.
