Car sharply pulld to left and then veared off road and started flipping down an embankment. Highway patrol and other witnesses saw car while turned upside down and saw tierod was completely broken, mentioning that this was what caused it to sharply vear to the left.

Bad vibration at highway speeds. Had wheels aligned,tires balanced, tie rods ,both front axles, both front bearings, front disc brakes(rotors and pads), both front struts replaced. Vibration at times gets bad enough to lose control. None of the above solutions fixed the problem.
