May 15, 2010...i had my left cv axle and tire alignment on the left side serviced. July 2, 2010 i was driving and made a left turn. About a half a mile down the road my car on the left side completely collapsed. I thought it was a tire blow out, but it wasn't. Vehicle was towed and inspected. Diagnosed: left lower ball joint caused the incident according to the service department. Currently car is in the shop as i am trying to see who's at fault in order to get assistance for the work to be done. After doing some research i found that the lower ball joint was recalled during 1996-1999 for this part. Also the left side front fender etc is dented.
A squeaking noise could be heard while driving 30 mph or less. Vehicle was taken to the dealer, whoinformed consumer that both lower ball joints needed to replaced.
Consumer states that windshieldhas a glare. Dealer notified.
