Wobble on my tire after being fixed from curb collision.

[bbydragon]

So i'm driving a 2008 accord coupe v6, but that isn't the point here. I hit a curb when it was really icy one night trying to drift(I know I'm stupid and common problem). I went to the shop and paid 3.4 grand to fix it. They changed the lower arm, sub frame and I think a few other parts but still used my old shaft. I picked up the car today and as I am breaking from 60-80km/h I notice the wheel shaking, I ask a few friends to go outside and see if the tire has a wobble and yes it does. Does anyone know why the "wobble" still occurs? I'm pretty dissapointed how my car doesn't drive like before when I paid them to fix it so its drives like its new. Does anyone kno what is wrong with my car? Help would be appreciated.

EDIT: I was going around 20km/hr when I hit the curb.

Wheel bearing and/or wheel could also be damaged if they didn't change it.

they changed the rim, not sure about bearings.

simplest thing is to rotate wheel/ tire from back opposite side and see if wobble still happens .
While wheel is off on the corner that got hit , check if hub spins true, if it real bad you can see it w/o any special tools (micrometers )

Or you could just bring it back to the shop, tell them what the problem is and have them look into it / fix it.

A very slightly bent hub? This would cause a slight wobble in the rotor that you'll feel when braking.

Could be anywhere from the axle to the hub, but most likely your hub is slightly bent. Could be dangerous if the bolts are not able to torque fully against it, under the rotor.

okay so how do I know if its my hub or if my rotors are just warped? My car only has 18k clicks on it btw

Take it back to the shop. Rotors being warped will not cause your wheel to wobble as it turns.

Pretty much need to Check the hub with a dial gauge for any lateral or side to side runout

no one here knows a damn thing about your accident as we can't see it - just take it back ....as suggested above...

OP,

Seems you may be from the Toronto area, if you are near west Toronto and you still can't find satisfaction from the dealership, then check out the shop called All About Imports http://www.allaboutimports.com/ at Dixie and Eglington area, they are very familiar with Honda and is a very good shop I trust 100%, explain to them what had happened and let them have a look, make sure you show them the work order and the invoice you paid so they know what work has been done and what parts have been changed.
