Upper control arm bushings, driver side broke pulling the whole upper control arm assembly off the vehicle and thus resulting in the wheel falling off the vehicle. Fortunately this happened in my driveway at a low speed. I replaced the upper control arm bushings and bolts and so far have not had any problems with the aftermarket parts. Replaced the passenger side also as a preventive measure.
