Subject:      differential broke

Saturday night as i was driving along at 65 MPH my differential broke and
fell off my 89 syncro  and made the drive shaft bind    it prevented me from
making right turns
this could have been a catastrophe    I drove home slowly and made it
has any one else had this happen  is it something I can get VW for
this is a very well maintained van with 140 K on it
How does a differential just fall off ????

Thanks   Mike Jones
