The vehicle has just over 28,000 miles on it and it needs the whole front end suspension replacemed along with front brakes and rotors. The estimated repair cost is just over 1,000 dollars. I have a 1998 nissan frontier with over 154,000 miles on it and have not spent over 1,200 dollars in repair cost. I spent 500 dollars on a new exhaust and 600 dollars on the ignition system since 1998 on the nissan. I put only five to six thousand miles a year on the jeep. I see its a common problem on the dodge. Did I get the lemon. I also need to do a smoke test to figure out why the engine light came on, is this common for the jeep or dodge.
