May 13,2020. 11:32am Driving north, my drive side tire violently shook & suddenly gave way pulling me hard left. I struggling to keep truck in my lane but lost control of steering, the airbags also deployed. Blocking my view. The rode was a blind spot. I thought it was a tire failure. Be of the drop & hard pull to left. While the rode was curving right. I could not get truck to fallow curve. Causing truck to cross into oncoming lane. I never saw the other car. With air bags deployed. I thought I lost a tire and hit ditch was lifted up and hit ground hard. I was told I truck hit another car after crash. Hitting a car coming the other way. Causing a young women-€™s death. The tie rod had a clean break swing freely after break. In March 2020 had pulling or with extra movement off & on. Took to shop, they put a new sway bar on it. Seemed to help, no problems until this sudden catastrophic Paul and drop hard enough to deploy airbags. Truck is totaled but is here & available for inspection. Steve Erwin @ Scientific Analysis Inc. in Dallas TX 214 320-8686 has many pictures & Analysis. He mainly does accident recreations. He mentioned we need to find metals specialist to examine part failures.Due to failure being close to impact.

This recall N62 13V-528 was never done by Duwanne Lanes Everett WA even though I was told by the dealership service team that they had done this recall as requested while they had my truck for over 3mo ths time. On April 3,2022 my vehicle had a cautostraphic failure of my steerwheell column & caused my front left tire to break totally off the front steering stabilizer front ball joint tie rod end pitman arm the wheel was free spinning.I had no steering control at all while driving 65 mph on I5 in the center lane. It is sheer luck that I was able to get truck off the freeway without being injured. I think Duanne Lanes of Everett, Wa (RECALL REMEDY INCIDENT)

On freeway going over expansion joints encountered four separate times severe steering wheel shaking and bouncing, I had to bring the truck to an almost complete stop to get it to quit! traveling at 75 mph and 60 on the freeway its some thing thats very unsafe to have happen.
