I had to replace the upper ball joints on both front tires at less than 50,000 miles. The front right tire was ready to fall off when I went in for an inspection. Now I have it checked at every rotation and worry that it may happen again. I understand that this is a HUGE problem with the Durango but they are not including 1998 models in the recall.

This truck has always gone through tires every 25K miles no matter how many times I check the alignment or the air pressure. Yesterday I found out that there is enough play in the upper ball joints on both sides to warrant replacement prior to putting new tires on the car. Thanks Dodge.
