| Description of the problem | While driving home from work one evening my truck started making the most awful grinding sound coming from the front passenger tire. Then my abs light and serv 4wd light came on the dash. A few seconds later the tucked bobbled and weaved and i could no longer steer it. When i got out to look at the problem the wheel itself was resting on the hub assembly. Previous to this i've had to replace front end parts like crazy. New ball joints and i joints annually. Brakes twice a year, and it will eat up tires on the front. Also the truck will not stay aligned. I've contacted chrysler and first they were very helpful, but then they started to give me the run around. I've had to have their tie rod end recall fixed several times as well. |
