Details

What's wrong: On certain passenger vehicles, the lower control arm ball joints may experience a loss of lubrication that can result in accelerated wear and possible separation from the steering knuckle.

Why it matters: A ball joint that has separated may result in loss of directional control.

The fix: Dealers will replace the front lower control arm ball joints with modified assemblies. Owner notification began on April 4, 2003.
