Loose Steering

Alright. Its not so bad on the street, but once i get on the freeway 60-90 mph the car feels like its loose. The steering wheel has some play to it. It does not fee "solid". Could it be the tires? Could it be alignment. OR could it be this? I was driving around a corner and some KID in a maxima lost control of his car and hit the side of me and pushed me accros oncoming traffic and on i hit the curb at 45 mph. (he didnt have insurance, go fuckin figure). That was 7 thousand in damage. I was about 1 thousand from it being totaled. DAMNIT! But anyways, the majority of the damage was suspension. The shop that fixed it did a pretty good job, but my question is that, is it just gonna be like that because of the accident. Its just making me mad to the point where i wanna get rid of it. Please help me so i dont have to get rid of it. I just hope its something like an alignment or something. HELP

Steering box damage. Your steering box may be missing some teeth on the main pinion gear.

most insurance companies use shops that have lifetime guarantee on all thier repairs.. take it to the same shop that did the work and let them know.

But see, thats kind of where i screwed up. I lowered my car right after it was fixed and they told me that there was nothing more they could do because it is lowered now. I basically voided the warranty. DAMNIT!!!
