I had a slow speed accident in my 1998 Plymouth Neon. I was in a parking lot and only going 5 mph. The other car hit my left front fender. My strut is broken & various other parts of the suspension, including the axel. I can't understand how this could happen in a slow speed accident. I see there is a rear suspension defect and am wondering about the front.
