Will Forget This Moment... NOT!

Last night was the worst nightmare of any car owners. And for me, even worse than an auto collision.

STELLAR's left front wheel came off. Simply said.

I was going downhill towards Selayang at 120kph moments earlier. Then some perpetual shaking happens at the front side. Instantly I slowed down by reflex to around 50kph.

I shudder at the thought if ever I still drove at that downhill speed when the front wheels shook briefly.

A brief check reveals that only the wheel came off. The hub is fine, but the lower arm ball joint needs renewal.

I guess I'm pretty lucky. I'm not seriously harmed, only really shaken up.
