Balljoints

 

+1 on the balljoints

 

+1 on the ball joints (probably lower), and if they're so bad they're popping and causing steering problems, you should probably stop driving it until you fix it.

 

I had the same deal. Took it to the dealership for the free ball joint recall. It drove like new after that. Took about an hour. Here's a link to tell you how to do it yourself if you really want to. http://www.cfht.hawaii.edu/~grant/Ba...eplacement.pdf
