Did you get a print out after the alignment was done? If so was every wheel adjustment spot on ?

Don't want to be the bearer of bad news. I had a accident in my honda hit a curb at speed at a corner.

Afterwards they looked at damage and had snapped a link rod. But they found a kink in subframe. They said that evan after replacing all these parts she may not be right. So vehicle was written off.

Mmmmmmmmmm sounds like something is still bent. Can you get it to a specialist nears you, sounds like you need a second opinion.

Yeah I hope so!
Thinking about what you said regarding the dccd, it makes sense if your putting power through the rear diff ( green ) no problem, but when power is delivered through the front or equal the problem occurs it just point to something wrong with the damaged area
