[Question!] Hit a pothole, FUCKED my car.

I was wondering the same thing, there was a pot hole so big that it took up a hole lane, i caught air and shot sparks everywhere, couldnt even switch lanes cause traffic, fun times

22

All we can do is rant as I always have about this crap :slight_smile: However like I said, if all car forums, regular ppl, whatever got together collectively in humiliating the government how I don’t know, but say like a documentary we could put together (I’ve had this idea for a while) of all the Toronto road conditions, problems, crap… I’m sure SOMETHING positive might happen… it’s really pathetic because my mother’s village’s roads are better in Europe, and YES they get winters like here and they get big ass trucks roaming over them.

23

thats good its nothing serious, but you should still try and make a claim, my buddy hit a raised manhole with no sign or warning, smashed his tranny, the town payed for everything, it was close to 3gs, obviously this is a bit diff but still, a new strut and coil from nissan, would easily be $400 for just the parts not to mention labour, then just use the money towards your coils … and boom goes the dynamite lol

24

Yup. Going to take a photo of the pothole today.

Anyone know where I send this claim into?

25

Took some pics today.

DOES ANYONE KNOW WHERE I SHOULD SEND THIS IN (ALONG WITH A DESCRIPTION OF THE EVENT)? THANKS!

wow are you serious? Those are like normal holes around all of gta… the one i mashed was almost like a meter deep but was filled with water and it was dark at night… :frowning: Well either case I hope you get it fixed bro.

Hmm… I don’t have it off hand it’s been like almost two years now I guess? I found it i believe on ctv’s site… just google gta road holes toronto insurance or something like that… toronto had a specific email/address and rest of cities had a different one too

That is a really small hole. Looks like the garbage spring couldn’t take it anymore and was about to break regardless of the “hole”. You guys think the roads are back there come out west. TO’s roads are joy compared to Calgarys.

The hole is a lot worse than it looks in the photos – and it’s definitely not the worst one out there. I’ve hit WAY worse. The point is, if it wasn’t there, I wouldn’t have snapped my spring, wasted time, missed work, and blah blah blah. I was planning on getting coils this weekend anyways.
