Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: 1.) events: noticed a loud noise when turning sharply at slow speeds, and a different but locally the same noise, when braking hard. 2.) failure: hasn't failed yet because i am having the problem repaired at a cost of $800.00. vehicle has less then 50,000 miles. 3.)replace both upper and lower control arms,(they are one part so regardless of which fails, both have to be replaced doubling the cost to me). parts are available. after reviewing many entries on line from other owners of this vehicle, this seems to be a problem that is endemic to the model. chrysler refuses to assist with the service, stating that the vehicle is out of warranty. according to my repair tech, this is not a problem that should be left un-attended and could cause a serious accident at any speed. *jb
