Upon entering an on-ramp to the thruway, the driver side lower ball joint was completely gone, disabling the vehicle while my wife was accelerating. The wheel came almost completely off the vehicle. I'm not sure where or how the ball joint came off. My infant son was in the back seat, had the vehicle been going thruway speed, this incident could have been deadly.
