Repeated Ball Joint Failure

[aacsaplar]

Hi everyone. I have been having issues regarding the right side ball joint failing multiple times now within a short amount of time. I bought my 2016 Ecoboost two years ago and have had the joint fail two times roughly a year apart. When purchased, the car had 20,000 miles, but now it has a little over 50,000. I drive down to VA from MA, and vice versa, like four times a year for college, but I highly doubt this is causing significant wear and tear on the joint. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this problem?

Which ball joint? There are 6 in the front of the car. What mods?

So I was mistaken when I said I thought it was the same ball joint. I found the service receipt and the first one was one of the front left joints, not right. No mods, just stock. I assume now it's just time to have the right one fixed. My bad!
