Consumer Description

WITHOUT WARNING, THE PASSENGER SIDE FRONT WHEEL FELL OFF OF MY 2000 DODGE DURANGO WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN AND TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH. THE VEHICLE HAS ONLY 40,000 MILES AND THE FAILURE WAS CAUSED BY A SEPARATION OF THE UPPER BALL JOINT. THE FAILURE CAUSED DAMAGE TO THE LOWER BALL JOINT, THE TIE ROD, THE FRONT AXLE, THE BRAKE LINE, THE WHEEL AND THE TIRE. THE INCIDENT OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING WITH MY 4 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND 1 YEAR OLD SON IN THE CAR. WE WERE 1/4 MILE FROM TAKING A RAMP TO THE RIGHT AND ENTERING A 65 MPH EXPRESSWAY. I COULD HAVE LOST ONE OR BOTH OF MY CHILDREN TODAY DUE TO CHRYSLER'S NEGLIGENCE.*AK *NM EA03-023
