A little more info on the rag joint - most every car has one - the rag joint connects the steering wheel shaft to the steering knuckle of your car - the reg joint is really made from disc of rubber that are riveted together and then bolted to both shafts. The rag joint is there to eliminate road vibration from the drivers hands on the steering wheel. Since the rag joint conects this two critical components together, if you have a ripped or broken rag joint then when you turn your steering the cars wheels will not move in time with the steering wheel. Obviously if the rag joint breaks the car will not have a connection from the steering wheel to the tire any more and a crash will then occur.
