Consumer Description

THERE WERE NO WARNINGS OR EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE OF MY VEHICLE. ON MAY 29, 2006 WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY MAJOR ROAD THE AXLE AND BALL JOINT ON MY 2000 CHEVY CAVALIER BROKE CAUSING THE TIRE ON THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SIDE TO BEND OUTWARD AND CAUSING BODY DAMAGE TO THE FENDER ABOVE THE TIRE. THIS INCIDENT ALMOST CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT IF I HAD NOT GAINED CONTROL OF THE CAR. I WAS LEFT IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS BUSY ROAD UNTIL A TOW TRUCK ARRIVED. MY CAR IS CURRENTLY AT A REPAIR SHOP. *JB
