Consumer Description

FRONT OUTER TIE ROD ENDS OF 2007 DODGE CHARGER 3.5 LITER ARE OF A NON GREASABLE TYPE. THE GREASE WHICH IS UTILIZED AT TIME OF INSTALLATION BREAKS DOWN PREMATURELY (AT AROUND 30,000 MILES) AND TURNS TO A GRITTY CLAY IN THE BALL JOINT. THIS PREMATURE BREAKDOWN OF LUBRICATION RESULTS IN THE WEARING OUT AND FAILURE OF THE TIE ROD END WHICH WILL RESULT IN THE LOSS OF CONTROL OF SAID VEHICLE. THESE ARE MY FINDINGS AS I DID A FAILURE MODE EVALUATION AND UPGRADED THE OEM COMPONENT TO A GREASEABLE HIGH PERFORMANCE TIE ROD END. *TR
