| Description of the problem | Last year, 2010 i had to replace the tie rods in my 2007 jeep compass 4x4. It only had 36,000 miles at the time. Now i'm told the ball joints are bad. I can't drive my care because it throws me all over the road. A very definite safety problem, not to mention the money i'm shelling out for the repairs. |
