| Description of the problem | I was coming back from lunch cross a highway bridge on one side of the bridge had a rough spot when the truck hit it the truck started going from side to side could barely get it stop before headed off the road. What it was the right tie rod end came apart causing the tie rod to fall to the ground losing control of the steering could have been a bad crash for me. I did get a recall notice for the left side tie rod end but the right side i think both sides need to in the notice. It was a near miss for me! |
