I was backing my vehicle out to go to work all the sudden I heard a "thump" and the front passenger side sunk down. I got out and looked at the car its now sitting about a 1/2 inch of the ground. For a couple weeks I thought I heard a squealing noise coming from the car but thought nothing really of it. My question is what broke and did I damage anything else like a tie rod end or something?

It's either the front coil spring, or the ball joint, is the tire kicked out or buckled underneath? If not it's most likly the coil spring. If you can get a floor jack under it, jack it up, and have a look!
