Details

What's wrong: The spherical portions of certain lower ball joints had finished surfaces that were not smooth causing friction with the surface of the ball joint cap.

Why it matters: This condition can lead to separation of the balljoint increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.

The fix: Dealers will replace the lower ball joints on the affected vehicles.
