I had a minor car accident hitting a cement median on the front driver side. My alignment is now pulling right, my front driver side rim is completely damaged and the trim is off the front driver side above the tire. What could be the possible problem and what is an estimated cost to have it fixed?

I would take it to a good front end shop like a Les Schwab and have them do a front end check to see what is or isn't bent first. You could have just knocked it out of alignment but until you check you won't know. It could have a bent tie rod or control arm. So get it checked if has nothing bent then get it aligned and all should be fine again. Thanks and let me know how it goes.
