    Default Ball Joints

    Has anybody with a 2012 RS or RS-S had any issues with their ball joints? I have a 2012 rs-s and my lower right ball joint has gone bad causing the inside of my right tire to wear out. There are no handling issues, it is as smooth as glass. The tire wear started at around 6000 miles on the odometer. The dealership tech is going to try to get Bombardier to fix it under warranty. Here's hoping.

    Just sayin'.............
    Three in the garage, and I think I can fit at least one more in.....and then we will have to build another garage.
    The roads in NY are so bad that I am glad we bought a Ryker Rally

    Just sayin'............

    There have been a few, but failure is uncommon at that mileage.
