One of the most successful American rock bands in history, Bon Jovi is a household name around the globe. But the members of the group have suffered their fair share of setbacks. Here are some of the darker and more challenging moments in the lives of the famous bandmates.

According to Rolling Stone, when Bon Jovi taped its 2007 episode of Unplugged, there were rumors flying around the set that guitarist Richie Sambora was too drunk to play. His team denied that there were any problems. Nevertheless, a few days after the June 5th session, a band representative told Us Weekly that Sambora had checked into a Los Angeles drug treatment facility to address his issues with alcohol.

A source also told Us Weekly that Sambora was "going through a hard time" following a rapid chain of stressful events that included the death of his father, the finalization of his divorce from Heather Locklear, and relationship problems with girlfriend Denise Richards. A few months later, Sambora spent an additional week in rehab at Utah's Cirque Lodge facility.

Addiction recovery is a journey, and sometimes that road is rocky. In March 2008, while driving in California, Sambora was pulled over for weaving across lanes. After failing field sobriety tests, he was arrested, booked, and released about five hours later. The guitarist faced as many as six months in prison. He ultimately pleaded no contest to a charge of drunk driving and received probation, charged fines, and ordered to take an alcohol education class.

In 2011, Sambora decided to admit himself to a drug treatment center once again to seek help. Sambora explained to Extra that his 14 year-old daughter motivated him to stop drinking when she told him to clean up his act.
