Description of the problem	On a lovely saturday afternoon, my husband and i were returning home from a family picnic. We had just exited the highway and were traveling on a two-lane road in dover, nj. Suddenly, the car was violently thrown into the left lane with on coming traffic. I thought we had a blow out but was proven wrong. My husband just missed a car by inches as he wrestled the car back into the right lane all the while more cars were coming at us. He was able to direct the car to a side street. When we got out of the car we found that the right rear suspension arm was detached and hanging loose off the car. This necessitated calling for a tow truck from the toyota dealership. Our anguish and palpable terror was caused by the failure of numerous recalls to this toyota rav 4 for rear lower suspension arm to be properly & safely repaired. My husband works around the corner from the toyota dealership and upon the receipt of numerous recall notices, responsibly took the vehicle in for service each time. The most recent service visit was only a week prior to the incident. The dealership service manager called us and apologized and told us he took complete responsibility for the improper repairs. We could longer feel safe in this vehicle and traded it in immediately.
