1 Front Suspension Control Arm problem

Failure Date: 02/07/2019

The lower control arm is poorly designed. When the vehicle hits a pothole it will cause the lower control are to bend near the ball joint. Basically, the lower control arm metal is not reinforced in that area. The area by the ball joint is just a flat piece and does not have much strength. When it fails it will cause the cv joint to come out of the transmission and break many parts.
