Sorry to hear the bad news. I know here in California if the road/highway is damage and something happens to your car. The state/Caltrans insurance can be contacted to let them know your car was damage. All the times I have had this happen they payed for the repairs. More proof you have will help, repair shop est. photos of the pot holes(if you can safely get them). I had to do some digging to find this out. Yet it took some time and they payed. Maybe this will help.

Take photos and make a claim with the Maryland Highway administration.
Good luck!

They are fixable, runs about $100 a wheel.
