i have a quick question, well hopefully it's quick. hopefully this is the best place for it

well i got into an accident like 3 weeks ago which involved messing up with my suspension on the driver side. the car is now fixed, but when i had my car on jack stands to rotate my tires i found out that my front wheels could move. not forward or backwards but side to side. i guess its the direction of the camber? basically from left to right. the movement is like 3-5 degress of motion. i then checked with the other side and there are absolutely no motion so i am quite sure the people who did my work screwed up some where.well i am quite sure this is a problem since it will either lead to eating up my tires or unsafe driving conditions.

i was just wondering if anyone know knows what could be the problem so i can at least specifically point it out to them. i have called the guy to check it but he was confused on the phone saying that it was probably rust. okay... but he should have fixed it when he re-assembled my car. that, to me, is not an excuse.

is it your rotors or you wheels, your post and your title say different things.

if its your wheels first make sure your lugs are tightened properly in a star pattern. then check all the threrads on your lugs and the bolts they screw onto (whatever theyre called). and take a good look at them.

if its your rotor just take the wheels off get under there and look at it good. make sure its not warped or bent and make sure there are no uneven spaces around the edges.

if you really feel like it taek the whole rotor and hub off and look at everything really well.

other than that i cant really think of anything else.
