| Wheel problems |
I was driving about 20 mph, on a city street, and I felt the car veering to the right. The next thing I knew I was side swiping a parked car and realized that I had no control over the steering. When I finally came to a stop and out of the way of traffic, several witnesses came over to make sure I was okay. Fortunately, I was, however, we all saw that the right front tire was perpendicular to the wheel well and the tie rod was broken in two. Witnesses, police officers who responded to the scene, and the aaa tow truck driver were shocked to see the defect in the tie rod, and all commented that had I been driving on a highway, I could have easily been severely injured or worse, or caused a fatal crash and harm to others. Thankfully that did not happen, but the fact that the tie rod broke in a relatively new car makes me extremely concerned about ever driving this car again, even if it is somehow �repaired�.
