It sounds like a defective balljoint.
Is the tie rod still attached to the steering knuckle?

Re: bad mishap with my Tc =[

Trust me when I say this. Get a lawyer to call Toyota and to hurry their a** up and fix your car. I got into a wreck and my car was considered totaled. It took the Toyota dealership almost 6 months just to send my warranty check to my lean holder. Their dealerships are too slow for paperwork. I dont understand why. All they had to do is make a copy of a form and put it in the mail. Anyway, just explain to the lawyer what happened and tell him what you want him to do. If you dont know what to do, just ask him if he works with automobile claims. This would work out a lot faster for you. I waited and thought i could take care of this myself, but I regret it now.
