2000 Dodge Neon steering problems

While driving through shopping center at about 25 MPH tried to make left turn down lane the steering wheel locked in mid turn and my son looked down to see why wheel locked and slammed head on into a concrete light post, causing over $4000.00 in damage to the car. Also the airbag did not deploy during a head on inpact

Severe corrosion caused a weakness in the suspension cradle/ engine cradle that resulted in the front suspension control arm to break away from its mounting to the suspension crossmember/ cradle. The control arm and all associated components seemed to be in acceptable condition and did not exhibit any failures. The failure was severe enough that the drive axle was pulled out of the transmission. The vehicle was completely undriveable.
