Consumer Description

1) AT ABOUT 40,000 MILES MY FRONT DRIVERS SIDE LOWER BALL JOINT STARTED MAKING AN EXTREMELY LOUD CRUNCHING NOISE AS IF METAL WERE GRINDING WITH METAL. 2) I SUBSEQUENTLY TOOK MY TRUCK TO A LOCAL DEALER WHO NOTIFIED ME THAT THE LOWER BALL JOINT WAS LOOSE AND THAT IT WAS NOT COVERED BY THE PREVIOUS RECALL WHICH COVERED THE UPPER BALL JOINT ONLY. 3) THE PARTS AND LABOR TO REPLACE THIS PART COST IN EXCESS OF $270.00 NOT INCLUDING THE $40 INSPECTION FEE
