1 Tailgate Latch problem

Failure Date: 12/18/2003

After seeing the news articles on tv, we had the ball joints on our Durango checked and we were told that all four needed to be replaced. We did not want to have an accident and be one of the fatalities due to this very dangerous situation. We went ahead and replaced them in hopes that there will be a recall. We request that you do a recall. Also, the back latch rattles very loudly and we cannot make it stop.
