Consumer Description

MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING THROUGH A PARKING LOT AND THE CAR SUDDENLY STOPPED. SHE GOT OUT AND LOOKED AT THE FRONT AND DISCOVERED THE BOTH FRONT WHEELS WERE TURNED OUT IN OPPOSITE DIRECTIONS. THE TIE ROD HAD BROKE AND CAME APART. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I WAS ABLE TO FIX IT AT HOME, BUT AS A FATHER, I WORRY ABOUT JUST THIS THING HAPPENING! *TR
