1 Front Suspension Hub problem of the 2006 Lotus Elise

Failure Date: 06/06/2007

I was turning left out of a parking lot, accelerating in a safe but enthusiastic manner when I felt a violent shudder/vibration at around 30-35 mph. I immediately let off the throttle and felt increased drag as if I had a flat tire. I immediately pulled over into a gas station and found the my driver's side rear wheel was pushed up into the fender and the car was not drivable. The dealer told me that the heads had popped of the bolts that hold the upper control arm to the wheel hub. I posted this info on a car forum and found that my car is not the only one this is happening to. One member posted a video that happened to catch the event. This is the link to the forum that will contain extra info. . Read more...
