Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Up to this time, the vehicle was running fine with no sings of any problems. i had just merged on the highway. suddenly, i heard a loud bang. i thought a rock had kicked up and struck the bottom of the car. after exiting the highway and making a turn, i heard a "clunking" noise. after getting the car to the shop to check the problem, it was found that the front driver side coil spring had snapped. to repair properly, both front coil springs and struts will be replaced and the front end aligned. only new replacement parts used for repair. i never heard of, or experienced this. *jb
