Consumer Description

STRUTS AND BALL JOINTS HAVE BEEN REPLACED 5 TIMES SINCE OWNING THIS CAR THE PAST 5 YEARS. CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED AFTER SUBFRAME BROKE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. DID SOME RESEARCH AND APPARENTLY THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE. NOT ONLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING WHEN IT BROKE, I HAD MY KIDS WITH ME. WHILE MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN ONTO A BUSY STREET I HEARD A LOUD 'SNAP' AND LOST ALL CONTROL OF MY CAR.
