    I was driving along the road and was hearing a abnormal creeking sound. It persisted for a few days and went away. After a few weeks the sound came back, but this time much louder. I was driving back to my appartment and i heard some metal clinking and then saw a piece of metal bounce down the road behind my car. Part of the suspension coil broke off. This was on a city street, driving straight down the street.
