Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2001 dakota 2 wheel drive with a bad front suspension. it only 54000 miles on it. i have had the bushing replaced three times and now they tell me i need upper control arm bushings, both upper ball joints, and a r/f hub bearing. upper ball joints are very loose. i was wondering why i am always fixing the front suspension and if there is anything i can do to get this problem solved. i heard that there is a recall on the four wheel drive dakota's, but not the two wheel drive. could you please help me figure out what to do/ thanks, stephen. *ak
