RJ-0566-0

On certain vehicles, lubrication on the inside of the lower ball joint, which connects the lower arm of the front wheel shock absorber and the steering knuckle arm, is inadequate. If left unfixed, excessive wear and damage can occur. At worst, the ball joint separates from the steering knuckle arm, and the vehicle becomes stalled.
