1 Front Suspension Control Arm problem of the 2016 Mazda CX-5

Failure Date: 11/19/2019

There was a thumping sound coming from the right front wheel, at slow speeds on a dirt road. When I took the car to the repair shop I was told that the bushings, lower control arms and struts needed to be replaced. I know there is a recall on some of the cars like mine, but apparently mine is not part of the recall. However, I do not think it is a coincidence to have similar problems.
