I have a 2001 dodge durango. After seeing a report on the ball joints on tv i took my vehicle in to be checked. Good thing i did because the right ball joint was about to break and had to be replaced. The left ball joint has some wear but was not replaced at this time. There is a definite problem and it needs to be addressed. *jb
