Default Jeep at dealers - crossing fingers

Well now that I've got the xterrain tires (5 mths) I noticed a really bad wear pattern on the lugs. On the front every other lug is wearing right off the jeep? Any Idea's? Maybe the cause is the reason for my earlier steering stabilzer failure and the 3 DW, and occassisonal shimmy I got. The wear is more noticeable on the left than the right so I finally brought it in. My guess is a wheel bearing and track bar bushing.

Getting the BAS/ESP random light turn checked to see if they can figure it out

Having every component in the front checked for issues.

The good news is they have told my wife the jeep will need new tires!!!! So the 35" tires I'm looking for right now. I want the toyo open country, KO (who makes these again?) or the KM2. KM2 might fall to the side because of the national backorder.

Mechanically nothing wrong so now I bring it tomorrow to the alignmnet specialist that I know. It's more than likely a toe in problem and maybe a caster issue.

ESP/BAS - they will not do anything about it as they determined all the esp sensors are working properly and they are sending home the 3 tsb on esp that would require about 3 hour to flash. (Nintendo code)
