I was driving on highway 522 going 60mph at 11:30pm. The highway was smooth and had no bumps then randomly the wheel on the rear passenger side broke off the car and went flying. Police officers and state troopers looked for the wheel and they couldn't find it. Luckily I remembered in drivers ed that when a tire blows out (even though this situation is a little different) you firmly hold onto the steering wheel and hold it straight. The car then straightened out and stopped once I ran into the railing.

Manufacturer recall numberj0U NHTSA recall number18E091 I've been warned about this recall for my vehicles brakes, and I noticed a little before I received this warning that my brakes are making a strange noise when I back out of my garage that seems to be coming from the brake hose. I've also noticed on the freeway if I was to slam on my brakes that it slides a little more tha I would expect and makes a pretty bad grinding noise.
