Description of the problem	Purchased jeep compass new, nov. 2007, it's driven 99% of the time by wife to/from work at hosp. Driven less than 6,000 miles per year. Wife stated hearing a creaking/ squeeking noise from front of car. I took the compass to the dealer to have it checked out, they stated it was the front left lower ball joint. They replaced the left lower control arm/ball joint assembly and a front end alignment. I feel there is a defect with this part failing after only 25,000 miles ( maybe whole front suspension). This vehicle is well taken care of, the jeep dealer does all oil changes, tire rotation, filters on schedule. This jeep is kept in a garage at home 100% of the time and garaged at work except for the last 2 years. Jeep has never been off road. Purchased 4x4 so wife could safely drive to work in snow as she works at a hospital and needs to be there during all types of weather. I know how this jeep is cared for and to have this type of major part failure is unacceptable, with an undue cost of over $ 500. 00 not to mention the safety issues involved. Not a happy person with this jeep compass with only 25,777 miles on it. *tt
