My friend had an accident on the road a few days ago, there's a serious problem with the front left wheel, white smoke coming out from the left wheel, very heavy to turn wheel left or right, there's also loud clicking noise. The upper part of the front left wheel looks to be 45 degrees tilted in. The tire and the rim seems ok.

Please advise the exact problem and repair needed, and a ballpark figure in terms of repair/replacement.

Thanks very much!
