2000 Chrysler Sebring

I was driving my car and fault something wrong with the steering and went to make a right turn I heard a noise and my car front passenger side of my car was on the ground and my wheel was under my car. Thank goodness for no one else being involved that day and thank God I wasn't hurt badly... I have never seen or have anything like that to happen to me... I'm glad my children wasn't with me... I'm glad I wasn't traveling down the road when that happened.....

I WAS NOT INFORMED OF A RECALL AND ME AND MY SON WERE IN THE VEHICLE DRIVING AND IT STARTED HOPPING ALMOST AS IF IT HAD HYDRAULIC. I TOLD MY SON TO FASTEN HIS SEAT BELT CONSIDERING WE WERE JUST LEAVING THE STORE AND PULLING ONTO A BUSY HIGHWAY. IT CONTINUED TO WOBBLE AND I SPED UP TO GET OFF THE HWY AND THEN HEN THE JUMPING REAL HIGH AND HARD BEGAN I WAS GOING MAYBE 45 MPH AND THE AXLE OR BALLPOINT HAD SNAPPED CAUSING THE CAR WHEEL TO LOCK UP AND CAUSE ME TO RUN IN THE DITCH LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HARMED BUT WE WERE VERY INTERESTED MUCH SO SHAKEN UP.. I HAD NO ISSUE OUT OF THAT TIRE OR BALL JOINT BEFORE AND I AM NEEDING TO KNOW WHAT I NEED TO DO TO START MY INVESTIGATION... ME AND MY SON ARE HAPPY NO ONE WAS INJURED TOO BAD. *TR
