| Description of the problem | Went to go get my jeep inspected, upon inspection my vehicle had failed due to the tire being loose and the outer tie rod needing to be replaced. Went to the dealer the next day and had the tie rod replaced. Went back to get my vehicle re-inspected and again failed for the same reason. Went back to the dealer and was told that the ball joint and control arm was bad. Both of these problems are hazardous to the owners driving them. Someone is going to get seriously hurt if not killed while driving this vehicle and the front suspension gives out. |
