What's wrong here?

Can anyone guess what happened here?..






If you guessed right it's lower ball joint FAILURE!!! Yeah that's what just happened to me about 2 hours ago! Broken axle and ball joint!

400 Dollars gone!

DAMMIT!

[Kracka]

Shouldn't that be covered under the ball-joint recall?

[ThEwAy2b]

Not sure... How long that recall last for? Ever?

[Kracka]

Safety recalls last forever and must be performed as often as necessary. Verify the recall was for the failed part and tow it to the dealership (the tow charged should be covered by the recall too).

Yep I got $500 from Chrysler by writing them a letter and sending a copy of the bill for the exact same problem.
Then I took it to the dealership and had them replace the other one.

Recall reacall recall! I never knew there was a recall for this! Have them check out your xfer case while you're there!

[Kracka]

Isn't the transfer case recall 1G only?

[Jaei Sun]

Xfer case was for 2g too as I recall, as well as the 3/Sssss.

Thats too bad, but good because the dealership takes care of that stuff for free

They won't cover your tow. At least, not Roseville Chrysler. Not even if they tell you they will cover it. They are asshats.

So what if it's already been performed once? Should it be done again?

[turbotalon1g]

I checked for all the recalls on every DSM that i have bought.

You got to figure these cars just go thru ass hat kids that just want to mod the thing and complain about them breaking. (whats maintenance?)

Poor luck dude, hopefully they cover it like everyone says.

I didn't know that they didn't release the T-case recall until 1998!! thats nuts.

How do you find out if the recall has already been done?
Also if you have a modified car is it still able to get the recall?

[Kracka]

You give the dealership your VIN# and they can tell you if its already been done or not. Safety recalls will be covered on all street cars even if they are modded.
