Well, it finally happened. Last night I had my lower driver's side A-arm break as I was making a left turn from a stop (in the pouring rain). Fortunately, I was in a residential area and there was a wide shoulder to pull off on.
Only had to wait about 25 minutes for AAA towing to take me and the car to my local shop, and the tow truck driver took me the extra mile to my office where I could get a company vehicle. I have a full set of all four A-arms in the shed, and the mechanic is fixing the car this morning. Not too bad, all things considered.
Everybody needs to inspect these frequently. I'd hate to think what one of these busting loose at high speed would be like. It was squirrel-ly enough at 20-25 MPH.
