I was out Christmas shopping with my mom. I had to get further over due to a very larger oncoming truck being a road hog. Hit the snow on the side of the road lost control of the vehicle until I hit the snow bank on the opposite side of the road and regained traction. All seemed fine(snow packed in the nooks and crannies but fine) until we came out from a late dinner and have a flat tire.

I have a parkway sgl 2013 unoccupied.

No. That doesn't sound like there was an impact, and even if there was, it definitely doesn't seem like it surpasses NHTSA minor accident criteria. I wouldn't replace.

I agree, sounds fine to me. My sister & BIL slid in the ditch once with DNi in her infant seat, no damage to the car and easy to get back on the road, the snow really helps to slow you down gently in those kind of situations I think.
