On December 2000, the lower control arms of the suspension of my 1996 Chrysler Sebring were replaced. The replacement was due to noise and steering problems of the car. The lower control arms were then replaced due to the complaint and a recall on the lower control arms. On 26 January 2004, the lower control arm on the drivers side of the car failed as I drove in downtown atlanta. The failure caused the cv axle to dislodge from the engine and damage the braking system and body of the car. I the proceeded to contact Chrysler for an investigation. The case # is 120-241-89. The investigation was conducted 9 February 2004.
