Details

What's wrong: Certain vehicles were manufactured with ball joints that can prematurely wear out and, in the worse case, the ball joint would separate causing the front suspension to collapse.

Why it matters: This condition would result in vehicle deceleration and a sudden loss of power. Also steering controllability would be reduced.

The fix: Dealers will replace the front suspension lower ball joints.
