Consumer Description

I OWN A 2007 DODGE CALIBER AWD AND RECENTLY HAD THE TIRES REPLACED AND REQUESTED AN ALIGNMENT CHECK. THE TIRE COMPANY NOTIFIED ME THAT THE LOWER BALL JOINTS/ CONTROL ARMS ARE BAD AND NEED TO BE REPLACED AND SAID THEY HAVE SEEN THIS PROBLEM IN THE CALIBER FREQUENTLY. THE VEHICLE HAS LESS THAN 30,000 MILES, HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT THAT INVOLVED THE FRONT SUSPENSION AND HAS ONLY BEEN DRIVEN ON HARD SURFACED ROADS. THESE COMPONENTS SHOULD NOT HAVE BEEN DEFECTIVE WITH THIS LOW MILEAGE. THE FAULT WAS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND REPAIRED BY THE DEALER, BUT IF THE PART FAILED AT HIGHWAY SPEED, IT COULD HAVE BEEN CATASTROPHIC. *TR
