Is this Bad?

I was going through removing my tires to check my abs sensors (abs/brake light on) and I found this on my right (passenger) front tire!

No wonder the car would roll so much!

I drove like this for 4 months! Was this dangerous?

Well, technically you survived 4 months on it, so it wasn't THAT dangerous lol

I don't think the endlinks being off would do any damage to the car, unless you pushed it hard on a normal basis.

End link has been reattached. luckily I had two other links from another car that fit. That A**hole that I bought the car from is going to have a peace of my mind. That end link seems to have been like that for a while.
