Hi, hope someone can help.
Just been out in the snow and unfortunately hit the kerb on the left side.
When I goto reverse the right hand side wheel goes round but the left doesn't. Followed by a straining motor sound. Driving forward tho is fine!
Any help or suggestions would be great!

Sorry I meant kerb. Driving forward is fine. Can steer fine.
Just front left hand side wheel doesn't reverse. Begins to whine at biting point. Right hand moves fine.

I'd advise, you don't drive it at all. Just incase you make things worse.
Or something happens when your travelling at speed or main road etc.. For your saftey & anyone else's
