    That happened to me a while ago in a new company car, no body was injured and no damage was done but when the hire company took it away to see what the problem was they said the steering boss had cracked and shattered but they could'nt explain why :confused:

    My mate was on the way to work and the axel snapped and flipped his car on its back.

    The only person that came past was some hippy who gave him the thumbs up and kept on going. :lol:
