Was driving on my way to work and when I turned into the parking lot of the school I heard a loud pop and it sounded like I had ran over a stick, however, when I got out and looked there was nothing under my car or in the parking lot around my car even. I took it to my local dealer and they found that the sway bar had broken in half. This is going to be a $2,000+ repair for a solid piece of metal that shouldn't snap into like a twig. This is very unsafe and could have been extremely dangerous if I had been driving anywhere else except for the school where I was going slow.

Right strut mounting bracket broke off as the welding broke . Bracket fracture caused sway bar link to become disconnected, damaging sway bar linkage and upper ball socket. This happened on highway 17 in santa cruz, CA. If the vehicle was traveling at the speed limit instead of in slow traffic, it would have certainly resulted in an accident, as the whole car tilted to the right as the weld broke off. We want gm to answer to this. Accidents from this defect will not be obvious, since inspection of the crash will show a broken weld, which would be considered a result of the crash, instead of causing the crash.
