| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: I went to have my brakes checked and was told my right and left lower control arm bushings were broken. i took the car to the dealership (towed in because the transmission went out) and the bushings were replaced. the mechanic said he has very seldom seen bushings in the suspension break with only 60,000 miles on the car. my car is a 2003 chrysler pt cruiser. i complained numerous times about the transmission but was not acknowledged until the car was inoperable. i am quite happy that the mechanic who does my brakes noticed the control arms. i asked chrysler to check them while my transmission was being repaired, if not, they would never have checked. the suspension is of course, not covered by the warranty any longer. repair costs were nearly $600. *nm |
