Suspension problem
2005 Vauxhall Vectra V12 Front Wheel Drive Automatic

hi i drove over a speed hump the other day, and straight after i started hearing a knocking noise, took the car into a garage yesterday and they checked the car over and diagnosed a broken spring in the drivers front wheel. the car was repaired. this morning droved the car off the driveway and herd a ginding noise when i got out and checked the car the whole front had collapsed, both sides, i phoned them striaght away and they are collecting it monday. i need some sort of idea as to whats happened to the car to determine if i have a claim against them, or some sort of ammo against them.

without seeing the vehicle it is impossible to comment on what they actually did or didn't do .. no matter what the cause, they now have to fix the vehicle for free as it was not in this condition before it went into there workshop ?
