Description of the problem	Was just pulling the car down the drive way and the front passenger side tire blew out. I stopped the car and a friend was going to change the tire. He noticed the spring had broken loose and punctured the tire. The car had been sitting in the drive way for 12 to 15 hours before we went to drive it. We had not even made it on the road and was only going a couple miles per hour and about 15 to 20 feet. We were on our way, going out of town and were thankful that we did not have this happen going 65 mph on the highway were we could have been hurt or hurt some one else. Several times a week we have a new born and a two year old in this vehicle. Thankfully they were not with us. This front end suspension problem needs to be looked at, somebody is not going to be as lucky as we were. For us it was the drive way and not driving on the high way at a high speeds with our family.
