I noticed a vibration and it felt like the vehicle was shaking at times. This problem increased at higher speeds. I took it to a dealer for inspection and found out the control arms, tie rods, and ball joints were in critical condition and needed to be replaced. This vehicle has less than 50,000 miles on it.

Jeep had 40,000 miles on it and was making a weird noise when driving on the highway. I thought it was tires, so I got new tires and they told me the ball joints were loose and needed to be replaced. They quoted it and said that without fixing it, it would wear down my tires faster. I brought my car in for inspection at another shop and they were surprised, but they said the ball joint assemblies needed to be replaced as they were loose and rusted out and that they need to do both control arms because of how the Jeep are bit and explained it thoroughly. They also said they could not estimate how much of a life they had left, but that it would be best to fix it before it broke. I had them replace the front control arms and ball joint assemblies.

  • 5,500 miles
The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Patriot. While accelerating, the steering wheel pulled to the left and right without warning. The failure recurred numerous times. The vehicle was inspected by an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the lower control arm was missing the pinch bolt and needed to be repaired. The contact stated that there was no evidence that the bolt was ever placed on the vehicle. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 5,500.
