Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Bolt head broke off. bolt attached rear control arm to wheel bearing. external portion of bolt head looks fine, but portion where the head attaches to the threads is completely rusted through. i saw the broken bolt head on the garage floor, otherwise i never would have checked for it. with the head broken off, the bolt could possibly fall out of the hole, and the frame would drop significantly over that wheel. the weight of the vehicle likely kept the bolt in place. it cost $51 to have the bolt replaced at an oldsmobile dealership. the old bolt head is available. *nm
