Consumer Description

WE HAVE A 1999 DODGE DAKOTA THAT WAS RIDING ROUGH. AFTER DRIVING ANOTHER VEHICLE, AND THEN DRIVING THE DAKOTA YOU WOULD NOTICE THAT THE SMOOTHNESS WAS GONE, AND WHEN GOING OVER ANY UNEVEN PAVEMENT OR BUMPY ROADS YOU REALLY HAD TO GRIP THE STEERING WHEEL TO HAVE CONTROL. TOOK THE VEHICLE IN FOR INSPECTION AND ENDED UP HAVING THE UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAD 44,000 MILES ON IT. THE REPLACEMENT TOOK CARE OF THE PROBLEM WITH AN OUT OF POCKET COST OF $633.00. *AK
