Description of the problem	I own a 1998 dodge durango and back in march of this year i replaced the upper/lower ball joints due to failure. The vehicle had an awful squeaky noise and when taken to the mechanic i was told that i was lucky to still be alive as the balljoints were extremely worn out due to be an ungreaseable type. The repair cost me $650. It has only been 3months since the repair in which the balljoints were replaced with dealer parts and once again, the squeaky sound is back, i've gone back to the mechanic only to be told that once again, the balljoints have failed!! Another $650 to fix, this is outrageous!! Dodge must become responsible for the fact that these balljoints continuously fail and they must come up with a greaseable type. In this economy it is very difficult to spend $650 every 2-3 months on balljoints!! At this rate, there will come a point where the tires will fall off the vehicle and cause a death being as these joints don't last as long as they should.
