BELLEVUE, Wash. — The wet winter in western Washington has left many roadways in shambles. Some drivers tell KIRO 7 they can't drive their car without having to dodge a massive pothole; some are big enough to do some serious damage to a vehicle. 'If they hit a pothole, they can damage not only engine components but suspension components, too. It can brake shocks, shock towers,' Casey Kong with Northwest AutoCenter in Bellevue said. Kong and other auto shops KIRO 7 spoke with off-camera say they continue to see more and more customers with damage that was caused by a large pothole on the interstate.
