Description of the problem	i was driving by 88 st and 94 ave in miami, florida went through the train tracks, and heard a loud noise, like an explosion, and the car started to shake and move to the left lane, thank god there was no cars coming, so i finally control the vehicle, i look for a reason of the explosion, and then drag... Literally to a shopping plaza, where i noticed the tire behind on the driver side was almost separating from the vehicle. I called my son, and he send a tow truck, later a mechanic would tell me that the inner tie rod broke. I noticed months before that the car made funny noises from the suspension. I called the dealer sent an e-mail to toyota usa warning them, they told me to go to the dealer. They didn't care what i said to them, i went three times to them, toyota usa insisted to go to the dealer. Three years later toyota usa sent me a warning brochure about the inner-tie rod problem and how to do the alignment on the rav 4 but when i bought the car they never said anything about doing this procedure. I did the alignment for the rav 4 in a place that has all the certifications, in my opinion the rav-4 has a defect involving the suspension ( after shocks) and the inner-tie rods, i hope this helps find the reason of this problem. And how to get reimbursed for all the expenses that i went through this..
