The ball joint on these vehicles do not have a castilated nut to secure the ball in position, the nut can back off and the ball wallers out on the steering arm causing tire, brake warpage and steering failure when the socket wallors out. This is a problem on 1997 1998 and 1999 vehicles. I noticed that their a complaint S of brake warpage on these vehicles in yoour reports and a couple of wheel failures. I am an engineer who has worked in the auto industry and this is not a crank report.
