Accident with a jack lift
 
So ia was changing my tires and started off with the front left one. I lifted up my tC from that side and removed the wheel. Something was wrong with the jack so if came down. I had just taken off the left wheel so the car came smashing that side. I managed to pull the car up again and noticed the shield got somewhat bent. The rotor itself looks ok. It did not get any sort of marks. I took the car for a ride to see if there were any strange noises and didn't find anything awkward. What other area could have possibly gotten damaged so that I can get a close look at it. I am worried something worse happened to my tC. Help PLEASE!

check the strut.

everything from the top mounts (where they bolt up in the engine bay) all the way to the bottom of the hub. it might be hard to tell though if there is or isn't damage inside the strut. if you drive it and notice the left front has a bumpier ride then somethings messed up

FYI, next time...when you jack up the car, u NEED to place jack stands to hold up the car and not rely only on the lift...because well, this is what could happen. imagine if you or someone was under, it could have been a lot worse. please work on ur car safely and correctly
