    I hit a small pig. Now I get messages on the dash, cruise control, vehicle stability control, and precolision system malfunctions. I can see no visible damage. The truck does pull slightly to the left.
    Help!!!

    If it is pulling then you knocked the alignment out of whack, and if that happened the oinker may have also taken out an ABS sensor on one of the wheels. Maybe with ABS out of commission the truck won't run any of the automated systems? I'm just spitballing.

    "Out of alignment" means something broke. Get all things checked out and fixed. Not meaning to sound condescending, but there are hints.

    "Hit a pig" might require some explanation to the insurance company, though.

    Hitting a pig isn't that crazy if you live in a rural area with pigs. They are damned escape artists. Kinda like goats, only less finesse and more brute force. Hell, in Texas it could have been a wild pig. It's not like he said he hit a hippo or something that doesn't live on the continent where the Taco is sold.

    Yeah Well, dont go to a shop or anything llike that,
    they might actually help you with it.
    Instead, ask on a forum with no pictures.
    Seriously

    If you need to hold the steering wheel at 1 o'clock position to drive straight, that can cause VSC, PCS, and adaptive cruise errors as well, as steering angle is an input to those systems
