Consumer Description

APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR AGO THERE WAS A SEPARATION OF MY BALL JOINT ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF MY CAR. I WAS GOING ABOUT 25 MILE AN HOUR AND BASICALLY MY FRONT END COLLAPSED AND THE WHEEL SEPARATED FROM MY VEHICLE. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC AND HAD IT REPAIRED. THEN ON APRIL 13TH 2014 IT HAPPENED AGAIN ON MY PASSENGER SIDE.THIS TIME I WAS ROLLING TO A STOP SIGN SO THE TIRE DID NOT COMPLETELY SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE. AFTER HAPPENING TWICE I LOOKED UP RECALL AND DISCOVERED THIS EXACT SCENARIO WAS DESCRIBED FOR MY VEHICLE TYPE DURING THE YEARS OF 2002-2004. I WAS LUCKY BOTH TIMES I WAS NOT TRAVELING AT A HIGH RATE OF SPEED. NHTSA ACTION NUMBER :EA04024 IS THE RECALL I AM REFERRING TO. *TT
