The recall covers certain Sentra compact cars from the 2020 through 2022 model years.

Tie rods breaking. Yikes.

I had a tie rod break on my old beloved Civic. I was stopped though, had just finished refueling. Turned the wheel to move away from the pump and… KACHUNK!

Tried moving it into a parking space and no dice. It would kiiiiiinda steer. Got out, looked at the passenger-side front tire, turned to the left. checked out the driver’s-side tire… turned to the right.

“I don’t think it’s usually supposed to be like that,” I tell my friend.
