Any tips on how to figure out what's wrong with it? I'm gonna take the tire off and see if I can spit any obvious damage. If it is the arm or bushings, Is it something I can fix myself with the help of my dad?

For sure, it won't be easy, but it's all doable in a garage with a jack and jack stands.

One easy thing you can do is just to look at the tire angle, fast tire wear is usually due to too much toe in or out.

I had the same code on my 09 G5 which has the 2.2L. poor idle. I replaced that actuator posted above, and it resolved my issue.

Check the wires for that sensor... you said your car was in an accident?
