1 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 09/19/2021

Front ball joint came off and caused car to come to crash into road. It is now in a repair shop where I had it towed as it was causing problems sitting on road. If I had been going faster I m not sure how serious a problem to me or others on road it would cause. Possible death. It is being inspected by advanced automotive, 503-364-2046. The car has less than 50,000 miles on it and I don't understand how a front end (ball joint) can go wrong that quickly. The only warning I had was a squeaking in the front end. Is this something normal? the mechanic said that there was a recall on this problem. Since I bought it used from a Chrysler dealer you would think they would clue me to the problems. Ha ha.

2 Suspension problem

Failure Date: 01/12/2010

Passenger door master switch malfunction, driver window rolled down by itself during ice storm while driving on highway would not roll back up. Had to purchase and replace with new switch. Faulty rear camber in both right and left rear wheels. Both leaning inwards about 12 degrees, ruined 2 new tires, had to spend $670 for camber kit, and $200 for (new) new tires. Transmission herky jerky.
