In fact, some streets look like they belong on the surface of the moon.
The Camden County Highways Department has removed the snow plows and attached the asphalt box to battle the epidemic.
The craters are sending wheel covers flying, flattening tires and bending rims.
Jim Giglio of Pep Boys says he's hearing the same thing from many customers.
"I hit a pothole and I need a tire," Giglio said.
Action News caught up with a road crew that was putting hot patches on Camden County roads. Each crew uses eight tons of asphalt a day repairing 50-75 holes.
"It's hard to keep on top of. There's so many roads," said David Stout of the Camden County Highway Department.
Meanwhile, motorists must navigate highways like minefields and it's not easy.
Especially at high speeds.
"There's too many of them, you can't miss them," said Bill Miller of Marlton, New Jersey.
"They're all over the place."
