Just wanted to give a big thanks to the New York City Department of Transportation....or..WHOEVER THE HELL IS RESPONSIBLE FOR OUR FUCKED UP STREETS IN THE BRONX....I REALLY APPRECIATE YOUR HARD WORK....NOTTTT



STAY OFF THE CROSS BRONX BY ROSEDALE

needed to buy new one anyway...:thumbsdow:thumbsdow

 

dame yo that fcuk up.....sorry to hear about the rims...u must be piss as hell

 

If your vehicle is damaged by a pothole, you can file a claim with the City of New York. Visit the New York City Comptroller's Web site and use the claim form (pdf) or call (212) 669-3500.

http://www.nyc.gov/html/dot/html/motorist/pothole.shtml

submit the claim...

 

Shit! That's bad. How fast were you going? I was about to mention filing a claim like above. I think it has to be a pothole that hasn't been reported yet or some other odd stipulation but it doesn't hurt to try.

 

Ouch that sucks. Stupid potholes. Good luck with that whole claim thing though.

 

Thanks for the posts guys, yeah ill definately see if there is an outcome to this form.

 

Gotta be careful now. The snow plow pulled up all the loose road or patches of road. The van-wyck is also messed up. DOT will be out after the winter season

 

yeah I got a cracked rim too man...

got it fixed...

NYC sucks man

 

OMG!! Dam man I feel your pain I hit 2 major pot holes in a matter of a couple days, one was on thrusday night on the belt parkway when it splits to cross island and brooklyn/queens and the other was today on the LIE right before the HOV lane begins. I dont know if I have any major damage, but the first one I hit I knew was bad, because right after I saw a line of cars pulled over. Im gonna get a wheel alignment soon, hopefully nothing is wrong. G/L with your claim, let us know the outcome.

 

Yoooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!

 

Mac tl, same spot I blew my 20z on da left lane near Jerome ave .. I go out Jerome ave and I went to put back my spare at the tire spot across mcdonalds... The cross Bronx is fked up badly

 

damnn man just saw those wheels on your car last weekend, they looked nice. sucks bro, just an excuse to change it up

 

Damn that sucks hardcore...I recently got a bubble in my tire going over a pothole left by one of the snow plowers. There was a recent survey done and NYC has the worst infrastructure in the continental United States. This ranges from side streets to highways to bridges. Dont think those dipshts in Albany will fix this anytime soon. Just LOOK at the BQE. That sht has been under construction for the past 10-15 years already.

 

damn Marcus... fukin cross bronx got u, shit suks ass

 

When the weather if good the Cross Bronx is still messed up. I think NYDOT does that shit on purpose so people don't speed. Like how long has the mill basin draw bridge area on the belt been messed up. And with them doing the construction it got worse, WTF

 

Could it be the rims....

 

It can't be just the rims I hit a pothole so hard it bent my aspec strut along with the pillow mount and the rim cracked off on the side.

 

I hit a pothole so hard on the BQE that my koni slipped through the fork, my tire was under my fender, But my Enkeis were flawless.

 

New wheel purchased and put on looking good again thanks Ron..

 

Do did NYC DOT reimburse you?

 

Sorry 2 hear dat fella's... Work 4 NYCDOT, but not highways.....
Only deal with Sign's...... But we all kno da Cross Bx been F'd up
some spots are good & other's aren't..... But livin in NYC u haffi
kno where & where not 2 drive ya rims on

 

Thats crazy man. Good luck luck with everything. Hopefully they fix a lot by mid spring. It's a sad state we live in on certain things.

 

chalk another rim up to being bent

BQE vs Aspec rim and tire....... and the winner is the BQE!!

I bent mine yesterday right after you get on the BQE from the Triboro in the left lane when you start to go uphill actually after the underpass where Boluva is. This was a crater not a pothole. It got me and 4 other cars including a pick-up truck. I downloaded that form and I'm putting a claim in as soon as I get a new rim which should be tomorrow.

 

Yo 6spd hit me up or come thru my job
