Consumer Description

ALL FOUR BALL JOINTS HAVE FAILED. LOWERS REPLACED AT 80000 MILES AND UPPERS AT 100000. SEEMS EXCESSIVE. FRONT AXLE INNER BEARINGS COMPLERTE FAILURE WHICH DAMAGED FRONT AXLE ITSELF AND NEEDED REPLACED. FROM LOOKING AT THE MANY OTHER FRONT SUSPENSION COMPLAINTS LODEGED, THERE APPEARS TO BE A REAL PROBLEM THAT SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED. FRONT SUSPENSION IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN. *AK
