Could be a snapped tie rod or steering knuckle, causing the wheel to buckle out suddenly with no discernable blowout

    Yeah, that’s what I was imagining. This generally doesn’t happen without a catalyst however.

    The likelihood of preexisting damage and just giving out while driving on straight flat pavement is very low…possible, sure, but very unlikely.
