Had my vehicle in for routine maintenance. I have been noticing clunking from the steering wheel and shaking problems at highway speeds. Dealer inspected car and found left and right ball joints cracked and broken power steering line, along with a broken tie rod on the left side. I find this very difficult to digest as the car doesn't even have 25,000 miles on it, it is never driven in snow, and is constantly in my garage. This car is driven on average of 4,000 miles a year, and mainly on the interstate when it is driven. Now I am facing a 1500. 00 repair bill to replace these parts. After doing some research, I have found others have needed to do this same repair numerous times on their vehicles as well. I think Chrysler should step forward and admit that these parts are defective. There aren't even any lubrication zerks to help prevent future issues with this. Now that spring is here I wanted to get the car ready for summer, now we are afraid to drive it until it gets fixed, but according to what I have found, I can expect to have this done again in another 25,000 miles. I don't think this is right.

I was driving home from work around 2am on Tuesday morning 10/22/2013. I was just coming out of a construction zone and it just turned back to 55mph. I was going approximately 45 mph when all of a sudden I heard something in the front end and the steering wheel began to shake and it started moving back and forth without me moving it. I lost all control over the vehicle and it shot me over towards the right and slammed me into the guardrail. I continued to try to move the wheel to the left to get the car away from the guardrail but the whole car slid up against the guardrail before I could regain control and move the car away from the guardrail. This car was bought on 10/10/2013. I didn't even have it for two full weeks before this happened. There is almost $12,000 worth of damage done to the car. I have filed a claim with Chrysler group regarding this and they inspected the vehicle but according to them there was too much damage to tell exactly what happened so they aren't willing to do anything for me. I am a very experienced and safe driver, someone who has driven tractor trailer over the road for 5 years and if you look at my driving record it would match up with what I am saying. There was something very wrong with that vehicle that night and I could have been seriously hurt or even killed. The fact that my wife and I bought this car less than two weeks before the accident and Chrysler wants nothing to do with it is very disheartening. And I now have to keep driving this same car and worry every single day that something like this is going to happen again.
