My 1993 Chrysler had the right side front end steering fail while we were driving down a 15 degree down-slope. There was a loud "bang" and the car was unsteerable and on that slope, unstoppable. As we headed for a 75 foot cliff, the car grounded out on some loam on the side of the road. I have the mechanics repair list still. The front right tie rod ends sheared off causing loss of control. Chrysler almost killed my entire family so they could save .12 cents.

Do you drive a 1993 CHRYSLER LHS?

Just because a car has been recalled does not mean it is not a reliable car. Millions of cars get recalled every year. Recalls often involve problems that are rare but could cause a serious problem if they occur. So the risk to any given driver is often remote, even though there may be a few high-profile incidents traced to the problem.
