while getting over smoke started coming out the hood entering the car through the air vents, by the time i crossed 4 lanes my car looked like it was going to blow up. i immediately began exiting the freeway to the right to at least try to reach the emergency lane before the car died on the freeway. i was driving down the freeway and noticed that my foot was on the gas pedal but the car was slowing down. i have kept up maintenance on my car and have a manufacturer and extended warranty (bought from the dealer) both covering my car up to 100,00 miles. I have a 2003 mitsubishi galant purchased new with 12 miles. i need help with this cause i spent money on this damage and feel useless because of a bump that disable my only car for work. there were no signs or cones in the road to notify that there was a rough bump in the road. so i ended up calling the state trooper and had to pay out of the pocket for towing back to montgomery. i called my insurance but the couldn't pinpoint where i was. two other cars hit the same bump including the state trooper that came to assist me.

my strut bottomed out and was sitting on my tire making it not drivable because the tires were rubbing against the strut. i had to pull over and stop because my tires were smoking. i exchanged lanes to the right side which was the paved side and came near the bridge and hit a hard bump which made my car hop up and slam down hard. just outside of macon county on mile marker 45 there was a car speeding in the work zone where signs were up saying unleveled road.


Api was traveling up 85 north to atlanta between 9:30 pm & 10:00pm.
