ABS light and brake light on dash stay lit. Had brakes checked, pads like new and working 1999 Durango, why so many with this problem? only 68K miles on vehicle.

In January of 05 had to have both upper and lower ball joints replaced, control arm, front brakes and new tires as a result of bad F/E suspension. Now today the speed sensor (and I am hoping that's it) has gone out on the transmission. I have had two window motor failures, a sudden drop in oil pressure causing the truck to stall and there is something wrong with the electrical system. There have been many complaints in regards to these failures and the Dodge Durango and although they have recalled other Dodge trucks for these issues - they have yet to have recalled the 1999. I have contacted Dodge since January of this year regarding this issue and they responded telling me that they hadn't had enough complaints to issue a recall. I find this hard to believe seeing all the complaints made to NHTSA and to Consumer Affairs in regards to this year and model. I also believe that the Dodge dealer I bought this truck from (used) sold it to me knowing of these problems - although this I doubt I could ever prove. I am thankful that the front wheels stayed on as long as they did as I have read of the ball joint issue causing wheel separation. This could have been a deadly situation for my family (4 small children - we rely on this as our only transportation) and I hope that the problem is fixed but have serious doubts.
