Extra squeeky beakes, vibration when stopping, squeaks when hitting bumps, car wonderng in lane.
The lower ball joint presses out. You need a ball joint press you can rent one at autozone. Also, the lower control arm needs to be inspected real good,sometimes if the lower control arm bushings are worn bad enough its cheaper to replace the whole thing ,rather then try to repair the one you got. I have seen some that the lower ball joint would be loose in once the new ball joint was pressed in. Not a easy job,so take notes before to start on this one. It may be cheaper to buy the whole new lower control arm for it
Can be incorrect alignment, bad lower ball joint, badly adjusted steering,or wrong pressures.

Tire could be unbalanced, wheel bearing shot, lower ball joint bad.
If you let the ball joint go that bad, it can separate and you will lose control.
A worn ball joint will cause tires to wobble or rotate in odd ways, causing uneven tread wear. If you suspect a bad ball joint get it professionally checked or changed ASAP.
no but your mom can.
most of the times if you have a bad ball join you will hear a bang when turning corners.
Possibly, the ball joint is bad or a bad strut, but I would have the ball joint checked first.
Yes
When there is excess play or movement in the joint. Wheels must be off the ground to check this.
Eratic steering, uneven tyre wear, a distinct knockng sound over bumps. If you jack the front up and move the suspension/ steering by hand, you may see sloppy movement in the ball joints
