The risk
When the vehicle is used continually and the seal breaks, losing its ability to lubricate, the front-suspension lower ball joint may wear over time and possibly fracture in the strut area. In the worst case, the front-suspension lower control arm may become loose, making steering more difficult.
Product: model manufactured between 1994 and 2006.
