On certain vehicles, the front lower control arm ball joints may be susceptible to a loss of lubrication which can lead to corrosion, accelerated wear and possible separation from the steering knuckle. A ball joint which has separated from the knuckle, may result in a loss of vehicle directional control with minimal advanced warning.

On later 2003 model year vehicles, the dealer will first inspect to determine if ball joint replacement is required. Any ball joints that do not pass the inspection will be replaced. All vehicles must have the ball joint boot heat shields installed.
