Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Left and right lower control arms (2 on each side for a total of 4) were severly worn, and have been for quite some time prior to my having the defect inspected. with the car on lift, the ball joint could be pulled out of it's socket with little effort. had i hit a bump at a high rate of speed, this could easily cause loss of control. i am contacting audi as well, but haven't as of this writing. *ak
