While driving at 35 mph, your car's front end began shaking and vibrating severely. When inspected, the front passenger-side wheel was found to be out of position because the control arm was cracked. This suspension failure caused the vibration, and the vehicle had to be towed home. The manufacturer was contacted but did not offer assistance with repairs.
