Was driving down the road and felt a vibration and the next thing I know. The driver's side front end was dragging down the road with the tire intact. Just dropped?

I'm so sorry but I can't send any pictures as my car is on the side of the road back at where I was working today. About 20 miles parked on the side of the road.

Okay, when you can, get some pictures. From the sounds of it, it sounds like a ball joint broke and the car dropped, but I need to see it to be sure.

I think the airbag or the cylinder on that side went out.

No, the airbags are on the rear only.
