Product Details

Cardone 66-3514 is a complete CV axle assembly for the front right position on the Jeep Compass, Jeep Patriot, and Dodge Caliber. The design focuses on common failure points found in original CV axles, including boot cracking, grease loss, contamination, and vibration from shaft runout. This makes it a practical replacement for drivers seeking a direct driveline repair on 2007-2017 Jeep Compass, 2007-2015 Jeep Patriot, or 2007-2008 Dodge Caliber applications. This part cross-references Dodge 5273438AC and Jeep 5273438AD for the same application.

Common Problems This Part Can Address

• Clicking or snapping noises during turns
• Grease on the chassis or suspension from a torn outer boot
• Front-end vibration under acceleration
• ABS warning light caused by axle sensor ring or wiring damage
• Grinding or binding from a worn CV joint

Installation Notes

Do not let the axle hang unsupported during service, as this can damage the inner joint. Use a torque wrench on the retaining nut and follow manufacturer torque specifications; do not use an impact wrench for final installation. Replace the old prevailing-torque nut rather than reusing it, and install new transaxle seals when replacing CV axle assemblies to help prevent leaks. If the ABS light remains on after installation, inspect the sensor ring, sensor, and nearby wiring for damage.

Quality Assurance

Cardone engineers CV drive axles to address known failure causes in original equipment designs. Each shaft is checked for straightness, and the assembly uses boot and seal details selected to support consistent operation and reduced vibration.
