Cracked bushings, lower front suspension control arm


Recommended Posts

I had my 2015 CMax SEL in for service recently (50K service--at 42K miles). I was surprised to be told that the lower front suspension control arm bushings were cracked--and the whole control arm would need to be replaced (plus alignment) for $1500. Here are the photos--you can see a few little cracks, but I'm not clear what they mean. Has anyone else run across this?IMG_0019.thumb.jpeg.c760ca73ff77a4c035b3e0ff125bd288.jpegIMG_0020.thumb.JPG.e31a9d044a2252581a6daeee836c841a.JPG

Mine look like that. I'm not going to use Ford parts, or the dealer for this repair. Too expensive for an 11 year old car. 

My quote was not from a dealer--but costs are probably higher here in the SF Bay Area. I do trust the workmanship of this garage, though. Are you getting this done right away?
