Description of the problem	While attempting to enter traffic from our driveway upon acceleration the steering wheel shook and a loud "thud" was heard within the vehicle. My wife who was driving attempted to back the vehicle into our driveway but was unable as the vehicle was unresponsive. When i got to the vehicle and inspected it, i noticed that the passenger tire was tipped outward, so i inspected the vehicle and noticed that the lower control arm had snapped and went through the transaxle rendering the vehicle inoperable. When looking at our vehicle paperwork we realized that this particular part was replaced due to a recall in 2016. We contacted the dealer who informed us that we would need to take up the complaint with kia directly. We did so and were informed that there were no active recalls on this replacement part and that they only warrantied these replacements for 12 months. We wanted to alert you to this issue as i feel that this kind of damage should not occur to a 3-year-old replacement part on a vehicle that only gets driven to take the kids to and from school daily.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.

Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
