1 Front Suspension Control Arm problem

Failure Date: 09/16/2015

Honda dealer in flagstaff, az, indicated that the front compliance bushings are torn on my2016 Honda crv and need to be replaced. I have learned that the Honda bushings are not made of a solid/quality component and are failing at unusual rates which equate to unsafe driving and costly repair for the consumer. Is there a concern for suspension/alignment and steering problems due to torn bushings and is this related to the control arm bushing recall for Honda crv 2006 id#12v124000?.

Honda did not mention the NHTSA campaign id 12v12400, (suspension front control arm lower arm). I felt like the Honda rep did not explain my options, and did not listen to my concerns. I had it repaired at another auto care center. On 9-13-2012, the ac system went, compressor locked up. It needed an entire new ac system. At this time, the mechanic made me aware of NHTSA campaign id 12v12400 as well as many complaints on line of Honda ac compressor problems and the class action lawsuit (now over).
