I PURCHASED A USED 1998 GMC JIMMY WITH NO WARRANTY FROM FORT WAYNE NISSAN/INFINITI ON JANUARY 4, 2005 FOR MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. I HAD SURGURY ON MY RIGHT HAND AND COULD NOT DRIVE IT FOR ABOUT 5 WEEKS AFTERWARD. WHEN I DID DRIVE THE CAR,I TOLD HER IT NEEDED A FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND TO GET THE OIL CHANGED. OF COURSE, MOM (ME) ENDED UP TAKING IT INTO MONROE MUFFLER AND BRAKES, WHERE WE ALWAYS GET ARE CARS ROUTINE MAINTENENCE TAKEN CARE OF. THEY CALLED ME ABOUT AN HOUR LATER AND ASKED WHO I BOUGHT THIS CAR OFF OF. I TOLD THEM. THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT BELIEVE THEY SOLD ME THIS DEATH TRAP. 3 OF THE 4 BALLJOINTS HOLDING THE FRONT UP WHERE BROKEN AND THE PIN CRACKED. PLUS HE THOUGHT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THEM. I CHECKED WITH GMC AND THEY STATED THERE WAS NO...

I DIDN'T BRING THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE THEY TOLD ME IT WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. FIGURES...IT WENT OUT OF WARRANTY IN MAY 2001. I DON'T THINK THAT A VEHICLE SHOULD NEED NEW BALL JOINTS AT 28,916 MILES. IT IS MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THE BALL JOINTS ARE BEING REPLACED ON OTHER GM JIMMY'S THAT ARE OLDER THAN MINE. I ASLO, INCLUDED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WHICH I WAS TOLD WAS FROZEN IN PLACE. THIS EMERGENCY/PARKING BRAKE WAS NOT USED. HOW WOULD IT BE FROZEN IN PLACE????
