problem #1

Feb 082004

A4 4WD 4-cyl

  • Automatic transmission
  • 103,000 miles
Control arm failure, front passenger side. Resulted in loss of steering control and veering into a curb, damaging the vehicle ($2000+), insurance would not cover the failed part (esurance). It was extremely fortunate that I was going only 35 mph, that no one was standing or driving where I hit that curb.
