Consumer Description

PULLING INTO PARKING SPACE AND FELT A "POP" AS THE WHEEL TURNED. I TURNED THE WHEEL BACK AND FORTH AND NOTICED THERE WAS NO RESISTANCE WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT. I TURNED CAR OFF WITH THE WHEEL STILL TURNED TO THE LEFT AND LOOKED AT DRIVER SIDE WHEEL AND NOTICED THE WHEEL WAS POINTED TO THE RIGHT. I LOOKED AT THE RIGHT WHEEL AND IT WAS POINTED TO THE LEFT. I LOOKED AT THE LEFT WHEEL AND SAW THAT THE TIE ROD HAD SNAPPED IN HALF. THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT AND THERE WERE NO CEMENT PARKING BARRIERS PRESENT. *TR
