ON SATURDAY JULY 15, 2006 VEHICLE WAS BE DROVE HOME ON A COMMON ROUTE. WHILE NEGOTIATING AN S-TURN AT AN ESTIMATED 40 MPH, THE UPPER BALL JOINT FAILED CAUSING THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL TO FOLD UNDER THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. BEING A GOOD DRIVER WITH NO ACCIDENTS, I MANAGED THE VEHICLE UNDER CONTROL WHILE ALSO NOT HITTING THE BRAKES THUS LEAVING A 261 FT SKID MARK ( I DO HAVE A PICTURE).                     I HAVE A VERY GOOD MECHANICAL BACKGROUND AND AFTER FURTHER SURVEY HAVE CONCLUDED THAT THE UPPER-BALL JOINT HAD FAILED DUE TO RUST INSIDE THE BALL-CUP AND DETERIORATION OF THE METAL AROUND IT( I HAVE A PICTURE). THIS FAILURE HAS CAUSED AN ESTIMATED $1200.00 IN DAMAGE WHICH INCLUDES REPLACEMENT OF ALL FOUR BALL JOINTS THE TWO UPPER AT MY REQUEST ( NEVER TRUST A PART ON THE VEHICLE THAT HAS FAILED ONCE AND HAS A TWIN BROTHER), PLUS-A TIRE AND RIM, ETC. *LOWER BALL JOINTS WERE ON A RECALL NOTICE BUT I WAS NEVER NOTIFIED BY CHRYSLER BECAUSE OF NOT BEING IN THEIR COMPUTER SYSTEM AS A CUSTOMER. AFTER A WEB SEARCH I FOUND THE RECALL OF THE BALL JOINTS (NICE JOB BY CHRYSLER).      AFTER EXCHANGING REPEATED PHONE CALLS WITH THE DEALERSHIP AND CHRYSLER, THE \"EXPERTS\" DETERMINED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO \"IMPACT\".  I CAN HONESTLY SAY THAT THERE IS NO WAY THIS JOINT FAILED BY IMPACT BUT I CAN SAY IT FAILED DUE TO BAD ENGINEERING AND FATIGUE WHICH IS WAY TOO SOON CONSIDERING THE VEHICLES LIFE SPAN.  IN MY OPINION, CHRYSLER HAS FAILED TO COME CLEAN WITH A PROBLEM THAT WILL SOON BECOME VERY APPARENT WITH ALL IT'S JEEP LIBERTY'S!!  *NM","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2002","productMake":"JEEP","productModel":"LIBERTY","manufacturer":"Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)"}]}]}
