| I was driving my mother-n-laws 1992 mitsubishi galant and all of the sudden the car just started to swerve from right to left making a weird scrapping sound making me think the brakes were probably locked up. smoke started coming from underneath the right rear tire. at first i thought the car was on fire. the smoke kept coming out even though the car was parked for more than 10 minutes. my kid's and i were all afraid to go near the car. but the smoke started to subside and i took a chance to go view what may be the problem. the brakes were okay but i had seen some thick oil with small grains of metal in it protruding out from the center of the i guess was the head of the axle. i took the hub cap off to get a better look. i was only five minutes or less from home and took a chance to drive it there....but when i had arrived and tried to park it. the whole friggin tire came right off. i started to do some investigation and found several complaint sites. so now i am here writing up one and trying to see if at all anyone can help my mother-n-law get her car fixed? please let me know what we can do to see why this occurred? i was so afraid for the lives of my kid's and other's around me. i can only imagine what could of happened to us if i never had the feeling to get off of the interstate. deborah... please let me know!!!??? thank you!! *tr | |||
