I have a 2000 Dodge Durango, and I am concerned about the ball bearings, and the engine, and need to know what to do about it. My car is squeeking when I turn, and the engine is smelling like it's burning all the time.

While consumer was traveling 60-65 mph wheel shook violently. Consumer was close to the right side of the road, and when he came upon an exit he took it and pulled to the side. When he got out and looked at wheel it had turned toe-in. Consumer immediately called dealer, and had the vehicle towed. Vehicle was repaired at cost of $2100. There was no mention of a recall or investigation. Dealer replaced the wheel bearings, tie rods, steering column, and the steering rack. All those parts had to be replaced because of ball joint failure, and the wheel coming almost off vehicle.
