While in motion the passenger side ball joint did break. This allowed the wheel to become non responsive and caused the drive axle to break. If the vehicle was going at highway speed at the time, there would have been a severe accident to say the least.

Was towed in and the lf ball joint is rusted and fell apart. The stud and nut are still attached to the knuckle and the ball pulled out of the socket. This allowed the suspension of drop that corner of the car down and pull the cv axle out of the transmission. Just pulling out from home.
