Vehicle was making noises in front end. Took vehicle to dealer, they said noise was just bushings were just dry. At 40,000 miles took in because the truck steering was funny, dealer said both control arms and both swaybar links wor out. And truck was unsafe to drive. And the repair would cost consumer about $1000.
