The city I live in has horrible pot holes and bumpy roads EVERYWHERE! I have to drive over several bumpy patches and big pot holes every day on my way to work--is this causing or can this cause a lot of damage to my car? I just bought a used 2002 Nissan Sentra.

Yes, the big ones can knock your front alighnment out of
kilter. Front end alighnments run anywhere from 60 - 90 dollars. If you continue to drive the car the way it is, the front
tires wear out faster than normal.

Yes, it can do damage to the tires, the rims, your alignment, tie rods, sway bar, shcocks, struts, etc etc.
Avoid as many as you can, and start a group that will demand the roads be fixed.
