## Narrative
Driving vehicle and it started to sway. Loud bang and car stopped. I got out and the rear trailing arm had broken free from the frame due to rust. Car was no longer drive able. I had it towed to Darling's Honda in Bangor, Maine. They were not able to look at the vehicle because Honda has not finalized the recall. NHTSA RECALL NUMBER:23V-228  I am without a car and need a solution. I was told by the dealership that Honda may buy it back due to the extent of the rust because it is most likely not repairable.   I have called and chatted several times with Honda and have been told it  may be months before a solution.
