Rear lower control arm snapped

The rear suspension became corroded and one of the coils or bars broke off while driving. After the coil from the suspension broke off, it punctured a tire, which blew while driving. Thankfully, I had just exited the interstate, otherwise this would've happened at high speeds. This is a known issue that has previously been reported in a recall (113). The vehicle is registered in Ohio and has been since 2014.

The contact owns a 2006 Hyundai Sonata. The contact stated while driving 25 MPH, the vehicle drove over a bump in the roadway and the steering wheel had to be turned all the way to the left to keep the vehicle going straight. The vehicle was taken to a non-Hyundai dealer who diagnosed that the cross member of the vehicle was entirely corroded, and the control arm had detached from the cross member. The contact stated that while checking the vehicle Carfax report, he became aware that the recall repair under NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V354000 (Suspension) had been completed on the vehicle prior to him owning the vehicle. The contact contacted Alexandria Hyundai (1707 Mt Vernon Ave, Alexandria, VA 22301) where the recall repair was completed, and was informed that an anti-corrosion inhibitor was sprayed on the cross member of the vehicle instead of replacing the cross member.
