October 1998

I heard on the radio this morning that dodge may recall the 2000 thru 2004 dakota thucks due to ball joint problems. I have a 1999 dakota and my mechanic told me that the ball joints need to be replaced. My complaint is if they are going to recall the 2000 through 2004, why are they not recalling the 1999's? It is my understanding that there is little difference between the 1999 and the 2000. Thank you very much dave ball.
