Vehicle engine killed when making a right hand turn at a green light. Without power steering the car drifted into the oncoming turn lane before I was able to manually steer the car back into my lane and pull over and stop. Once stopped, the car was able to restart when in park.

: suspension:front:control arm:lower ball joint. I took my car into velde Lincoln Mercury in peoria, ill. 7/11/03 and told them that my car was fish tailing in the front. They told me I needed new tires, they did not tell me that anything else was wrong with the car.I was getting new tires and the place where I put the tires on told me that the lower ball joint was loose. They tightened it up, I had an appointment in two days with Lincoln in springfield, ill. To get it looked at. The next night the ball joint broke while I was going 50 miles an hour. I reinjured my back.
