I recently had to replace the ball joints and idler arm on my 1998 Chevrolet Blazer. I was advised by the dealership that this is a constant problem. I do not understand that if the manufacturer knows that there is a problem with the steering components becoming defective, then why don't they solve the problem. This is the third set of balljoints that have needed to be instaledl on the vehicle. The first set along with the pitman arm went defective at 29,000 miles and the dealership replaced them under the manufactures warranty.

Front bucket seat release piece has come off once on both front seats, already off for second time for driver side (and not that I use it that much either!). cannot move the location of the back of the front seat, making sitting straight up very tiring and aggravating for driving!
