I bumped my car in the snow, the front drivers side wheel hit the curb and the wheel bent in a little and it has knocked the steering - the wheel has to be turned 1/4 to 1/2 way round for the car to travel straight. I am questioning what could need repairing / what the damage could be and also an estimate cost for repairs. Many thanks
