Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON TOWN ROADS AND AROUND A TRAFFIC CIRCLE A LOUD NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE RIGHT HAND SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I ATTEMPTED TO PULL INTO A NEARBY GAS STATION BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STEER TO THE LEFT ENOUGH TO ENTER THE PARKING LOT. I MANAGED TO PULL INTO ANOTHER LOT A SHORT DISTANCE DOWN THE STREET ON THE RIGHT HAND SIDE. I INSPECTED THE UNDER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND DISCOVERED THE FRONT SUB-FRAME HAD RUSTED THROUGH TO THE POINT OF FAILURE. THIS FAILURE ALLOWED THE COMPLETE FRONT LEFT WHEEL/SUSPENSION ASSEMBLY TO MOVE ABOUT FREELY UNDER THE CAR.
