Recall info: "the inside and outside surfaces of the front cross members used on certain vehicles if exposed long term to snow melt water and anti-freezing agents may corrode due to insufficient performance of the rust protection. Should corrosion occur, a lower control arm could become detached resulting in loss of vehicle control and potential collision. In May 2016 we had to have the lower control arm replaced along with the front sway bark link assembly." I believe this is all part of the corrosion mentioned above in the recall. Car was moving when lower control arm became detached. $285 to replace lower control arm & front sway bar link.
