cost estimate to replace 4 ball joints and an alignment

What is your question?

I've experienced alot of repair/maintenance issues with this vehicle; specifically involving the front end suspension and alignmnets etc... I realize one's driving habits can play a huge role in the durability of the involved parts, but i've been very cautious with this vehicle and it hasn't made a difference in the repair needs. Does this model have a bad a poor track record in this area?
