This is a very excellent vehicle when you take good care of it. It lasted me forever and does what its meant to do.
When the ball Joints Start to make some noise its time to replace them RIGHT AWAY. Otherwise if the ball joints begin to rust and seize, the entire car can potentially lose an axle. On this particular vehicle, the ball joints were designed with a relatively small screw for the amount of weight that the vehicle mounts on. it is really important to get them replaced the same week of the symptom and not drive the vehicle until it is replaced.
The Drive train for this particular vehicle is ultimately mounted on this thin screw on the Ball joint. once it goes then the control arm will need replacing along with the drive axle.
This happened to me on both sides. I would like to inform everyone so this does not occur to people.
