What owners say
The lower control arm attaching bracket failed prior to recall notice 99v‑215 resulting in vehicle loosing acceleration pressure and eventually in transmission failure, consumer request reimbursement. Nlm
At 46,500 miles, tie rod bushins were almost completely 'disintegrated'. I had popping noises bring it to my attention local midas shop repaired the problem. Today I saw a news release on the auto.com web page so I thought it would be a good idea to post my problem. I have my receipt from the repair and will follow up with chrysler for reimbursement once chrysler is notified by the federal safety agency on the mandatory recall information.
The bushings and tie rods began to fail at 36000 miles. The dealer did not find a problem. Now at 46000 miles this is considered a "wear item" not under warranty. This is too early for this type of failure. There are few warning signs. The end result is a loss of steering.
While driving at approximately 15mph slowing down, noticed sudden loss of steering capability when vehicle began to wobble, drove to nearest tire shop, found left front tie rod end and motor mount had broken, also, was towed to dealer for repair.
