I Don't Know What Happened, And Im Scared My Steering May Be F**ked! Help!

[Jonessoda27]

Today as I was leaving school, it was raining and pretty wet out, I was going about 30 and I took a hard left turn and some scary shit happened and my front wheels seemed to lock all the way to the left and I moved it all the way back to the right, but it was scary because after I completed the left turn, I was on the left lane, so if there was a car there I would have been fucked. After I was driving, I suspected that I fucked something up, but I drove home, testing if I could actually turn left and right. I got almost home safely and there was a school bus, so I stopped the car completely to wait for it. When I turned the car back on and turned the wheel a bit I heard a bit of grinding.

What did I do on the turn, fishtail????
Is it something to worry about????
Is my car fucked?

I feel bad......

it sounds to me that you lost a lil control, but im not to educated in the steering development, so i'l let someone else tell you for sure

i dont think you could have messed anything up. check your power steering fluid levels, and top it off if necessary... relax and u know the rain is the time to pull the ebrake and kick down full second gear wet spins!

Hmm.. Were you stuck going foward, like the front-end was washing out? That would probably be cheap tires. Then again, you did say there was some grinding. ..Soo

They migh be cheap tires, but like do i have anything to worry about?

I always think about the worse that can happen..

If it happens again, and it's dry out....Then you should probably have that checked out.

sounds like the grinding may have been the power steering pump or something. If it isnt doing it now then dont worry about it.

It was pretty damn rainy today man... I wouldn't get really worried about it unless it happens again. It was raining so hard today that the parking lot here at college was flooded, along with a tornado in Tenino.

Yeah, if it's no longer grinding and it doesn't happen again, don't worry about it.
Take it easy on them curves when it's raining though..
