Coworker left work, realized he forgot something, went to reverse and drive off, but his truck wouldn't move:

Can he go forward? Those bushes are no match. And he has a bush guard already.

I've seen a tie rod end of that exact vintage of Expedition crap itself to the point of falling off in a parking lot, so I can't say I'm surprised to see it again.

He treats his car like shit. Also he just mentioned "it can't be the tie rods, I just replaced those" to which another guy responds, you mean this tie rod? *wiggles tie rod*.

Well, this guy says he just replaced the tie rod, it can't be the tie rod! To which another guy says, yes it is *wiggles tie rod*.

Happened to me in my Grand Marquis... while I was going about 45mph. Car shuddered as the front passenger wheel just wobbled like a shopping cart wheel. Twas the tie rod. Thanks, Ford!

so abusive, and clueless. Thats a winning combo.

Perhaps, by just replaced, he meant "like a year ago". So who knows.

So the real question is, did he break the rack this time? If you are a gorrilla you might be able to install the tie rod end improperly and cause the actual rod on the rack to break. Or it could be the cheap made in china parts that fail because you look at them wrong. Either way it is no fun.

Michigan doesn't require it, in fact I don't think you could get a 2nd plate if you wanted to.
