@JenniferQ - Try backing up with your wheels turned fully in either direction. That's when both my Fore Links finally snapped with the broken-off piece falling to the ground. Wheels turned left broke the left Fore Link and wheels turned right broke the right Fore Link. Before they snapped, both intermittently rattled for roughly a week when driving over slight bumps at slow speeds with the rattle getting progressively worse.
@Yaro probably has seen many more of these failures but from my photos, I think I understand the steps that occurred during both my failures:
The ball joint bushing is press-fit into a hole at the rear end of the Fore Link and it appears my initial rattling was caused by this press-fit becoming loose allowing the Fore Link to occasionally slide up and down on the bushing when driving over bumps. Then, the hole in the Fore Link got elongated making the rattle worse until a piece broke off when backing out of my driveway. Scary, but no where near as scary as your failure at highway speed.
I was hoping the new-design replacement Fore Links solved this problem, until your post that one of your new replacement Fore Links may be failing.
@Yaro - Have you seen any difference between the original and new Fore Links? Both Jennifer and I have AWD cars built in 2015. Also, my wife's 2014 P85 has not had a problem, so maybe the problem is only on AWD cars? Or maybe related to a specific bad batch of Fore Links.
