Steering Tie Rod Assembly Problems of Cadillac SRX

Rear tie rod failed, came apart causing steering to be very hazardous vehicle shifted into oncoming lane. Tie rod didn't break it was rusted from inside, the threads were worn. While the vehicle was in motion it was on a secondary road and the road is in good condition, no pot holes some patches here and there but nothing to warrant dislodging the tie rod. As stated before tie rod didn't break somehow water got in the sleeve part of the tie rod,causing it to wear. I have kept the parts that the dealership fixed just in case they are in need.
