This vehicle while backing from a parking spot separated the inner tie rod from the outter there are no sings of damage or abuse that I could find. The factory replacement parts have an enormous amount of play. We have tried two inner and two outter and the same result. The local dealership states this normal. I am not the owner of this vehicle. It was brought to me to be repaired. I am an ase certified master tech. I feel like there is a defect in the design of this vehicle.
