Consumer Description

1998 DODGE DURANGO: I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE FRONT CONTROL ARMS AND BALL JOINTS AT ONLY 53,000 MILES (FALL 02 AND SUMMER 03). I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE PROBLEM BECAUSE OF UNDUE TIRE WEAR...THE TIRE DEALER INDICATED THE TIE RODS AND BALL JOINTS WERE LOOSE AND HAD TO BE FIXED BEFORE THEY COULD ALIGN MY TIRES. UPON CONTACTING THE DODGE DEALER, THE MECHANIC INDICATED THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND THEY FIXED IT (OVER $1,200). THE MECHANIC INDICATED THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE.
