Diagnosis And Testing - Knuckle
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2016 Dodge Journey and 2015 Dodge Journey. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
The front suspension knuckle is not a repairable component of the front suspension. It must be replaced if found to be damaged in any way. If it is determined that the knuckle is bent when servicing the vehicle, no attempt is to be made to straighten the knuckle.
Inspect the lower ball joint per the inspection procedure in this Service Information. The lower ball joint can be replaced separately from the knuckle.
