Iam a owner of a1997 F-150 extended cab. I have been informed I need upper- lower ball joints, inner-outer tie-rod ends a iddler arm and pitman arm. I have been told by serveral auto shops that this is a common problem with Ford trucks and SUVs from 1997 till present. A recent one was a 2005 F150 needing this work. I have been to several shops that say they do not understand why there has not been a recall for this since its a common problem. I have always had Fords but I can not afford them at this price. Does anyone know how to go about getting a recall started? Iam a single parent with 2 children and this is way out of my expense range and I am sure I am not alone.
