My vehicle began to make unknown noises when driving, and steering control became very loose. I promptly took the car to my mechanic.

Lower control arm ripped off under cradle & ripped passenger side drive shaft off the transmission - the wheel fell off the car. It appears under cradle rusted from inside. I shudder at the thought of that happening when my wife was on the freeway, instead of coming to a stop. This vehicle was always kept in the garage. *tr
