Consumer Description

I NOTICE TODAY AN INVESTIGATION BY NHTSA OF COMPLAINTS ON DODGE DURANGO UPPER BALL JOINTS. I OWN A 1999 DODGE DAKOTA AND HAVE REPLACED SAME AT 48,000 MILES (AT MY OWN EXPENSE). THIS TRUCK IS THE PICKUP VERSION OF THE DURANGO. THE TRUCK STILL EXHIBITS NEGATIVE CHARACTERISTICS SUCH AS LOSS OF TRACKING AND CONTROL WHEN NEGOTIATING TURNS ON BUMPY ROADS. EXAMPLE IS THE ON-RAMP TO THE VERRAZZANO NARROWS BRIDGE (I-278), BROOKLYN SIDE. THE TRUCK WILL JUMP LANES AT SPEEDS OVER 40 MPH. NOT GOOD.
