Anti-lock brakes on my 2002 dodge durrango have put me into the middle of an intersection durring a red light ,at stops on dirt roads the rear wheels lock like the front brakes aren't working and it looks like a cracked weld on the control arm bracket on the left front. Dodge say's nothing is wrong and they won't fix it ,I have a pregnant wife and 4 kids who ride in this SUV and I can't get dodge to fix it, oh and the steering feels loose on it to ,road walks.

Consumer stated that while driving and without warning ball joints are wearing. Dealer notified.
Consumer states that while driving the vehicle at any speed the vehicle would pull to the right.dealer notified.
When making a turn there is a loud noise coming from the front suspension.
Consumer states that when she drives truck it feels funny, it feels as though something is going to break in the steering wheel. The steering also feels funny. It did not feel like that when she first purchased the vehicle. She has taken truck to the dealership, and the mechanic kept telling her that that feeling was normal, but she knew differently, and did not think so.
Had to have the upper ball joints/control arms & lower ball joints replaced on my 2002 dodge durango sxt 4x4 under warranty due to failing pa state safety inspection. The vehicle had 27k miles on it at the time. The veh now has 40k on it & I'm experiencing a knocking noise coming from the frt end again. A private shop stated that the the lower ball joints have excesive movement & must be replaced again. I took the veh back to the dealer & theye stated that they will not cover them under warranty again due to the mileage. This veh is only 17 months old with 40,000 all hwy mileage & was never taken off road. This is unacceptable in my opinion & a severe safety issue if the ball joint does separate.
While driving front end shakes uncontrollably. Dealer notified.
While driving consumer suddenly lost power steering and control of vehicle. This was caused by lower ball joint failure. The dealership replaced the ball joints, right hubs and bearings. Ea03-023
Main support bracket on front frame of vehicle was only partly welded from factory. This held the support suspension on vehicle. Before it broke I did report possible front end problem with the dealership. They said there was no problem. The vehicle broke down out of town on may 7 03. It is still broke. They said it need a brand new frame from factory. This vehicle only has 31000 miles on it. I have only put 2500 miles on vehicle since I had it. 2002 durango. I feel there are more vehicles out there like this.
