The contact owns a 2006 Toyota Sienna. While driving approximately 5-10 mph at night, the vehicle moved up and down and then crashed into a parked vehicle. A police report was filed. One passenger was injured. The vehicle was towed to a local repair shop where the contact was informed that the lower ball joint ripped out the control arm which caused the crash.
