Hit curb

So yesterday I was going about 40 and my front right tire hit the curb. I feel like my car is pulling to the right. Could I have damaged anything?

Absolutely! Go get it checked out by an alignment shop before something small turns into something much worse, like a bent piece braking, and then you hitting a wall. Not smart to let that go un-diagnosed.

Damn that right front tire! Hitting the curb like that! If only that right front tire would behave itself! Sometimes it seems like it has a mind of its own!

Did you mean to say that you accidentally drove into a curb at 40 MPH? Or did that curb just jump right out in front of you?

You could have damaged the suspension. Similar thing happened to me, the shock absorber cracked, some parts bent. I was going 60 though, when a car pulled out in my lane.
