While pulling onto a pave road, a 3 inch lip of pavement, at less than 5 mph, the rear passenger tire must have pulled such that the anchor bracket of the subframe for the inside lower toe link tore nearly completely off of the frame. Thankfully I was not going fast, and reading the prior posts, this is a significant problem which GM should not have ignored in the past, nor in the future.

When I called GM, they would not acknowledge any of these complaints, however did acknowledge the infamous ignition recall. I replaced three cylinders thus far on this car.
