My 1993 Chrysler had the right side front end steering fail while we were driving down a 15 degree down-slope. There was a loud "bang" and the car was unsteerable and on that slope, unstoppable. As we headed for a 75 foot cliff, the car grounded out on some loam on the side of the road. I have the mechanics repair list still. The front right tie rod ends sheared off causing loss of control. Chrysler almost killed my entire family so they could save .12 cents.
