Breaking an axle is not so uncommon. It has never happened to me but I know of two people who have had their cars delivered home over the issue. I haven't seen them for a while now but the vendors used to carry a bracket that was supposed to stop the wheel departing for its own destination when the axle broke. They wouldn't do that if the failure wasn't fairly common, IMO
