THE OTHER DAY I TOOK A RIDE IN MY TRUCK AND UPON DRIVING APPROXIMATELY TWO BLOCKS FROM MY HOME THE STEERING CONTROL OF THE CAR TOTALLY FAILED. IMAGINE DRIVING YOUR CAR AND AT SOME POINT, YOU LOSE THE CAPABILITY OF CONTROLLING YOUR CARS DIRECTION WHILE HOLDING YOUR STEERING WHEEL. ONE CAN ONLY IMAGINE IF I WAS GOING 65 MILES AN HOUR AND DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY THEN LOSING THE ABILITY TO TURN YOUR WHEELS. I AM BLESSED THIS MALFUNCTION HAPPENED WHEN I WAS ONLY TRAVELING 10 MILES AN HOUR. AFTER CALLING A TOW TRUCK AND HAVING MY CAR TOWED TO A LOCAL REPAIR SHOP, IT WAS DETERMINED THE CONTROL ARM BOLT HAD BROKEN OFF THEREFORE LOSING TOTAL CONTROL OF THE CARS STEERING CAPABILITY.
