Consumer Description

AS I WAS TURNING RIGHT TO EXIT A PARKING LOT THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE FROM THE FRONT OF MY 2008 MAZDA CX-9 AND I WAS UNABLE TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL OR MOVE THE VEHICLE FORWARD. I EXITED THE VEHICLE TO SEE WHAT MAY HAVE CAUSED IT AND OBSERVED THAT MY FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE TIRE WAS MISALIGNED. UPON FURTHER INSPECTION I DISCOVERED METAL SHAVINGS AND A LARGE METAL OBJECT HANGING DOWN FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE, APPEARING TO BLOCK THE TIRE RIM. A TOW TRUCK WAS CALLED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TRANSPORTED TO A MECHANIC, WHERE THEY DETERMINED THE TWO LOWER BALL JOINTS WERE BROKEN AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED.
