What is wrong
On certain vehicles, improper forging of the front lower control arms may allow cracks in the ball joint socket to form. As a result, the ball stud may separate from the control arm, which could cause a loss of vehicle control and a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace both front lower control arms.
