At about 6.15 pm on 12 Oct 2015, I was travelling with my family on said expressway, the right wheel (driver side) alongwith the axle and link rod came out of its position leading to severe accident of the vehicle. The Mc-phersion assemble came out from its studs and ball joint.

The road being expressway has no speed breakers and the car never ran over and stones etc nor hit on any road side objects. It was running absolutely normal when all of a sudden the wheel with axle came out.

Although we escaped from any fatal injury, however my family shook over the incident and is undergoing tremendous mental trauma till date. Our car has been crushed miserably, since it banged on road divider, culverts etc number of times before it stopped.
