Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have had numerous complaints that i have filed with this vehicle. the latest complaint i have is with the drivers side upper control arm. my son could have been killed when this broke. i have talked to several garages including the dealership and no one has ever replaced an upper control arm except on a vehicle that is very old and then very seldom. my son was turning a corner when the drivers side wheel fell sideways. upon looking at the problem we discovered that the upper control arm broke. this should have definitely should have not happened on a 2002 vehicle.
