Complaint Description: there was a recall on the front ball joints which i'm convinced lead to the uneven wear of the front tires. after the replacement nnoone in the service dept. revealed to me about the fact that the cords were showing through on the front tires and sent me on my way. i'm also convinced that the ball joint defect resulted in the replacement of the front brake pads. both the tire replacement and the brake pad replacement was an out of pocket expense to me because the dealership would not take responsiblity. (dot number: m6d2 tiresize: 205-55r16) .
