That's an expensive repair. Pothole damage isn't generally covered by warranty, but it might speak to the truck's durability. It's hard to say without seeing the specifics though. Where I grew up, you couldn't get the City to pay for damage done by potholes unless the pothole had been reported and the city failed to fix it in a reasonable amount of time. So that would go against collision on the insurance, and it's questionable what will happen with insurance rates.
