Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: My 1999 dodge dakota 4wd extened cab was in the shop for a front end alignment and i was told the ball joints were worn out. i then took it to the local dealership to have the ball joints inspected and was informed that all four (4) needed to be replaced. *ak the dealership advised me to contact a representative at daimler chrysler, who eventually hung up on me after denying my claim of defective parts. i informed the dealership of my conversation and they were kind enough to work out a satisfactory resolution. they were going to try to get it warranted through daimler chrysler but were unable to.
