| Description of the problem | While driving to work, just coming off the highway, i noticed my car became very difficult to control. I immediately pulled over, and saw my back driver's side tire at a very strange angle. I called the tow truck. We both looked under the car, and it appeared to be that the arm came dislodged from the frame on that side due to extensive corrosion. When coming home i googled the issue, and saw canada had a safety recall for this exact problem, in humid areas that use salt for de-icing. Coastal new england would also fall under these conditions, as would many other northern areas of the united states. This should absolutely be recalled here as well. If it had happened 5 minutes sooner, i could have been in a serious accident. |
