Re: Suspension/Steering squeak

This happened to my car a little less than a year ago, but I didn't know about the recall. Anyway, I let it go too long and it got worse and worse. Eventually, when I turned out of my driveway one day, the front right of the car collapsed and I couldn't steer. Basically the ball joint just gave out and snapped the control arm when the car fell down. Had to have it towed, cost $500 to fix everything. Luckily I wrote a letter to Chrysler and they fully refunded me. Then I went to my local Jeep dealer to have the other replaced for free.

My advice - fix it for free ASAP. Avoid the hassle of getting reimbursed.
