Suspension · at 24,000 miles · reported Oct 28, 2008

We were traveling down i26 to charleston, sc when the steering seemed to be pulling to the left. A truck towing a car signaled for me to pull over. He pulled over also and let me know I was traveling down the road crooked. I had one inch of clearance between my curb rear wheel and the back of the wheel well. I had a broken trailing arm. If it would have collapsed I would have had a catastrophic accident injuring us and others on the road. The part was partially broken for some time due to the rust on the brake.
