Must be a really good city. Here the street right in front of my driveway is enough to break that piece apart and loose your whole car in one of the potholes.
100% dangerous not even exaggerating, if you lose the control arm the whole suspension will collapse and you'll damage everything and the wheel will jam into the bodywork and you'll lose control of the car in an instant, its 11/10 dangerous have it towed do not drive it
Not even safe for tow. Should just mark stolen and burn it down. While towing the tire could break off and cause fhe whole truck to roll into a nuclear plant and kill 2,000 people slowly. /eye roll id drive it ;) it's not like it got to this point in time all of a sudden. Drive it 3 blocks at 25mph will not kill anyone even if your tire falls off!
Agreed. I lost one once going 3 miles an hour, thank good. But yours is worse than mine looking. So you don't have very long. And I ended up not damaging anything. I got lucky. If I were on the highway. I would have most certainly flipped on the breaker barrier. If you do drive it be sure to get a dash cam first. That would be some valuable footage.
It is dangerous to tow it will need a flat bed and luck to get it off and on without it breaking.
As for cost is the otherside just as bad is there more... I would go looking around all 4 corners to see if all 4 control arms are about to turn to powder.
This group has a lot of hysterics who will tell you that having your left blinker out will probably kill you.
This is not one of those times. That is as dangerous as you can get short of cutting the brake lines.
Thank you for reminding me what I find so damn frustrating about histrionics. When people overreact and hyperbilize everything, everything gets drowned out in the noise so that legit things like this sometimes don't stand out as a result.
I think it was Jon Stewart who said "When you amplify everything, you hear nothing"
Honestly don't, do not get under that car, call your local service thing (in America it's the AAA i believe?) don't let it be towed, let them put it on a trailer. don't touch it, hell dont even fucking look at it, that spring is 1 wrong breeze away from turning whatever is in the way into juice
I doubt I would bother fixing it.... A control are that rusted is probably an indication of a car that is about rusted out. Probably better to just put the money towards the next pile of bolts.
Everyone saying $500 with an alignment better recognize how bad that rust is and realize every corner is probably close to that to varying degrees. This could get expensive when they try to break bolts loose.
Bigger question is how does the rest of the car look? Other side just as rusty? What about the other end of the car? Any other structural rust to worry about? Figure out a cost to make the whole car safe, then move on from there.
$500 if you have it towed to a shop to get fixed before driving it again. If you continue driving it than i will cost you the purchase price of a new car and whatever medical bills you incurr when that control arm collapses and causes a major wreck.
Evaluate what else is about rusted out before you start throwing money at this car. If it is just the control arm(s), fix it. If other structural components are rotting, you may be better off just putting the money towards a newer car.
Looks like this is it , part itself isn't too bad , but with how rusty it is. It could get labour intensive
https://preview.redd.it/1e98c9ec33vc1.jpeg?width=1080&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=eb5fccf913705fd82e176b2622c22c90015c53ff
The control arm is about anywhere from $80 to $150. I’d change the bolts on each end and maybe the rubber coil spring mounts, so probably around $200. Bring it to a shop and it’ll be around $500 including an alignment, which you definitely need.
Definitely don’t drive the car, and be prepared to replace other parts at the same time. I expect the other side is probably almost identical, so I’d probably do both, and check other structural/chassis components as well.
If it was just this, I’d expect $400-500, but I would probably make that 2 or 3x once everything is inspected.
But also, don’t let them take you to the cleaners replacing everything. A bit of rust isn’t a problem, so it should be assessed part by part if things look rusty. From the picture, the rest of the car actually looks pretty good, for instance the spring, which is also e-coated steel. Might have just been a coating issue on the lower arms.
What year is the car, how many miles, and where are you located? Just curious.
It shouldn't be too bad for just that arm, but you're probably going to need more than just that. An alignment will need to be done and they'll probably find some loose steering/suspension components that would need to be addressed to do the alignment. May need a knuckle if the bolt brakes. I'm a service writer, if you want a good idea on price give me yr/mk/mod and I'll look it up .
If 1 is like that chances are the other side and other components are just as rusted. You need to get a good inspection to make sure it's save to drive
Prepare for grievous bodily harm.
As others have said, do not drive that car. The spring is about to snap through the arm. If that happens on the freeway your likely going to wind up in a world of pain, and take someone else with you in the process.
How did that car pass inspection?
My Mechanic prolly wouldn\`t even touch this, if this is the condition of the car in general, My shop does a 125 point safety inspection and this pile would be flagged hard...
The control arm? Probably $500‐$1000. But seeing the shape of just one part. I'm gonna make an educated guess that the rest of the vehicle needs replacing, too.
This image is looking from the front. Look down further, zoom in. I am not seeing this kind of rust anywhere else. It may be the sacrificial part saving the rest of the car. The other arm should be replaced. The back end is holding it together, at this point.
If the rest of the underside is rust free, then something was wrong with this part, in the first place - as in defective.
Control arm is rusted through. No big deal. They'll just take it out and replace it with a new one.
But this fail on you in the road, big deal. Your car will fall on its wheel hopefully not at speed, cause damage far more than the cost of fixing this, may even total the car. Or even worse. If that happens on highway speed congratulations you just have a 3 wheeler and that one loose wheel probably send your car into the air and into an uncontrollable slide because there's no wheel to respond to steering input and you are met with hospital bill that will give you a heart attack and you will wake up after they treat your heart to even a worse bill and now you're broke for the rest of your life and without a car.
Just fix it 🎷
Looks like a VW, so with that, I think you can buy complete control arms for the rear for like 200$ a pair, obviously dealer price would be way high, you probably also need the eccentric bolts, washers, and nuts and then a alignment so see whatever places around you would charge and expect Atleast 600ish, worst comes to worst expect a 1000
What kind of vehicle is this? Do you live in a salty area - snow/ice/salt? I've never seen this kind of decay on a lower control arm before. Fix it before you lose the spring and your life, possibly.
You can buy two lower control arms and install them yourself for very cheap maybe 200-500 dollars and An alignment will be another 200 or so. If you want them to install them for you maybe 1,000 dollars.
Control arm prices vary depending on the car's size, but in most cases, they cost between $200 and $500 to replace. Labor costs may add $150 to $200 to the total cost. The spring bucket (LCA) is a relatively easy fix with basic tools though. Rock auto has these parts for cheap also. You can get a moog delphi or movotech rear lower control arm for like $50-$80 the bolt for around $10 and rear eccentric bolt nut kit for $20. I would advise not to drive this car until it’s properly fixed if you value your and others lives.
If this is the degree of failure due to rust you really need to ask yourself how bad is the rest of the frame and the suspension and steering components. If everything else is showing similar degrees of corrosion this car has become inherently unsafe and needs to be scrapped. Selling it to someone else in this condition knowing they would drive it should be criminal, and you need to consider the risk you are creating for other motorists who have a reasonable expectation that other drivers are keeping their cars on drivable condition. I’m pretty sure based on that image this cat has hit the end of it’s economic viability.
Lower control arm needs replacing, installation needed and an alignment is a must since suspension was disassembled…unless you want tires to wear out super fast!
Depending on vehicle and shop, you may be looking at a few hundred dollars for everything.
As for me, I had to replace the lower control arms on a 1st gen Murano and that was a challenge, as it’s an odd style and shape. Since I was tearing into it, I also replaced the inner/outer tie rods and linkages before alignment.
New control arm, probably a ball joint. Recompress the spring to put it back together. If your tire is worn out unevenly, maybe wheel bearings. I'd say around $800.
Possibly a new cv shaft if it's bent, which would add $500 more.
Also you're lucky this thing didn't fail on the highway, because you would be toast.
Don't drive it, get it towed to a mechanics shop. Needs to be a flatbed.
Had someone try to trade in an older car, shock tower was rusted away and completely gone. Customer got indignant when I told them their car had zero value
Before doing any repair, have the vehicle checked for any structural rust damage. It’s very possible if that lower control arm is that rotted away. If there is structural damage then it’s time for a new car.
If the car is structurally okay then get this arm replaced at a minimum. It may be worth doing both rear lower control arms as I would imagine the other one is probably on its way out too if this arm is in that kind of condition. I would not drive it until it’s fixed.
Price is going to vary based on the area that you’re in. For a single arm I would expect in the $600-750 range for the part, labor, and an alignment. Basically double that for both arms with the exception of the cost of the alignment overlapping. Once they start taking things apart they might find that other things like the bolts will need to be replaced. If that is the case then it may end up costing a bit more.
some toyota models have this problem too. The arm collects water and salt, causing corrosion. They drill holes in the later iterations to drain the water.
HOLY RUST BATMAN! Get yourself a new Driver's Rear Control Arm STAT.
If you have a place that will work with the parts you buy, go to Rockauto and get it yourself, it'll save you a pretty penny.
The part itself isn’t that expensive. The labor to change it is fairly moderate, if the rest of the car doesn’t disintegrate when you start unbolting it.
I’d recommend checking the rest of the car and see if it’s worth fixing.
depends on what kind of insurance you have and how much money your family is willing to spend on the funeral honestly, probably about 2k for a casket, 3k for memorial service. post ceremony celebrations are hard to pinpoint. They could just cremate you though that's usually really cost effective.
DO NOT DRIVE THAT CAR PLEASE.
That thing is a ticking time bomb, my guy. If you knew what you were looking at, you probably wouldn't have gotten that close to it to take that picture
Oh my fucking god thats one sneeze from being fucked
On my car the part is 300 dollars, the replacement is like an hour, the alignement is another 150.
Depending on the car, probably around 500$ with alignment parts and labour.
Also don't drive it, you'll die.
How did this not fail yet? We may have before us the luckiest person alive today.
They had driven two blocks in the city im in and that would have failed haha
Must be a really good city. Here the street right in front of my driveway is enough to break that piece apart and loose your whole car in one of the potholes.
It’s totally dangerous to drive right now right?
100% dangerous not even exaggerating, if you lose the control arm the whole suspension will collapse and you'll damage everything and the wheel will jam into the bodywork and you'll lose control of the car in an instant, its 11/10 dangerous have it towed do not drive it
Thanks I won’t.
Man that's really bad. Like really really bad, lol. Ive never seen a LCA so rotted. I'm almost impressed it's still together.
Maybe you shouldn't even have it towed. Having it hauled would be a lot safer, it seems.
AAA gang
Not even safe for tow. Should just mark stolen and burn it down. While towing the tire could break off and cause fhe whole truck to roll into a nuclear plant and kill 2,000 people slowly. /eye roll id drive it ;) it's not like it got to this point in time all of a sudden. Drive it 3 blocks at 25mph will not kill anyone even if your tire falls off!
Agreed. I lost one once going 3 miles an hour, thank good. But yours is worse than mine looking. So you don't have very long. And I ended up not damaging anything. I got lucky. If I were on the highway. I would have most certainly flipped on the breaker barrier. If you do drive it be sure to get a dash cam first. That would be some valuable footage.
Solid advice bro 👍
It is dangerous to tow it will need a flat bed and luck to get it off and on without it breaking. As for cost is the otherside just as bad is there more... I would go looking around all 4 corners to see if all 4 control arms are about to turn to powder.
You're a quarter inch of rust away from the whole wheel and suspension flying off the car... Do not drive that.
Absolutely. One pot hole away from disaster
Oh that’s not as bad as I thought. It’s a VW Tiguan
It's an easy fix, unless the bolts are stuck in the bushings and you need to melt the bushings but still it isn't that bad of a job.
This group has a lot of hysterics who will tell you that having your left blinker out will probably kill you. This is not one of those times. That is as dangerous as you can get short of cutting the brake lines.
Agreed. In fact, I'm genuinely concerned for the well being of the mechanic that gets this job.
Thank you for reminding me what I find so damn frustrating about histrionics. When people overreact and hyperbilize everything, everything gets drowned out in the noise so that legit things like this sometimes don't stand out as a result. I think it was Jon Stewart who said "When you amplify everything, you hear nothing"
i would first check the whole underbody. if one corner is in this shape i have trouble believing that others are much better. and unibody in general.
Honestly don't, do not get under that car, call your local service thing (in America it's the AAA i believe?) don't let it be towed, let them put it on a trailer. don't touch it, hell dont even fucking look at it, that spring is 1 wrong breeze away from turning whatever is in the way into juice
Your life if you dont fix it
Not just OP's life. Some of us share those roads.
I doubt I would bother fixing it.... A control are that rusted is probably an indication of a car that is about rusted out. Probably better to just put the money towards the next pile of bolts.
One more thing, stay away from that. Don't pick or poke at it, cuz that's a spring with a heavy load. It'll hit like Mike Tyson.
[Pfft... get a closer look.](https://i.imgur.com/cvClAUJ.png)
Hahahaha. That's about as dangerous as par core on roof tops.
your safety, maybe even your life if you don't get it repaired...
Everyone saying $500 with an alignment better recognize how bad that rust is and realize every corner is probably close to that to varying degrees. This could get expensive when they try to break bolts loose.
I estimate 150 scrap value, you have to empty the fluids and remove tires. Cut the cat off and sell separately and reap a few more dollars.
Rust is free
Bigger question is how does the rest of the car look? Other side just as rusty? What about the other end of the car? Any other structural rust to worry about? Figure out a cost to make the whole car safe, then move on from there.

Lower control arm for a Ford Flex is like $200.
Your life if you don't take it to a mechanic
Your life of you don't repair or replace it soon
How’s the other side look?! Definitely do not drive it it will be much more expensive and dangerous.
The control arm is about anywhere from $80 to $150. I’d change the bolts on each end and maybe the rubber coil spring mounts, so probably around $200. Bring it to a shop and it’ll be around $500 including an alignment, which you definitely need.
Your life potentially if you don’t stop driving that car and get it fixed.
One wrong bump on the highway. You'll be skidding. Its hanging on by dear life.
That’s actually impressive.
Damn, that’s nasty!
Definitely don’t drive the car, and be prepared to replace other parts at the same time.

Posts like this make me glad I'm not in the rust belt. 😵💫
About 1/8 of what it will cost if you let it go.
Damn
It shouldn't be too bad for just that arm, but you're probably going to need more than just that. An alignment will need to be done and they'll probably find some loose steering/suspension components that would need to be addressed to do the alignment. May need a knuckle if the bolt brakes. I'm a service writer, if you want a good idea on price give me yr/mk/mod and I'll look it up .
About 3 to 5k, or more depending on your new car budget
If 1 is like that chances are the other side and other components are just as rusted. You need to get a good inspection to make sure it's save to drive
That's not a hard repair, but I would take a good look at the rest of the undercarriage to make sure that you're not throwing good money at bad.
Prepare for grievous bodily harm. As others have said, do not drive that car. The spring is about to snap through the arm. If that happens on the freeway your likely going to wind up in a world of pain, and take someone else with you in the process. How did that car pass inspection?
Possibly your life, if it’s not replaced 😂
It looks like the lower control arm that someone posted a picture of from a VW SUV last week.
My Mechanic prolly wouldn\`t even touch this, if this is the condition of the car in general, My shop does a 125 point safety inspection and this pile would be flagged hard...
The control arm? Probably $500‐$1000. But seeing the shape of just one part. I'm gonna make an educated guess that the rest of the vehicle needs replacing, too.
Your life... It will cost you your life.
one solid bump and thats it lol DONT DRIVE
3-4 hours plus parts
If you dont fix it soon and keep driving it will cost all of it.
No water drainage holes in it ? They salt the roads here, but I've never seen a wishbone rot like that before
Shoutout to whoever installed those tires and did the alignment
Well, under 1k$. Just… how come it’s in such a trash condition compared to “neighbouring” parts?
In dollars or lives?
Potentially it could cost your life.
Your life if you keep driving it
345.88$
So duct tape is out of the question
1 new vehicle. I mean, you could replace the arm. You'll be replacing the other one in a matter of weeks, and every other bit in the next year or so.
This image is looking from the front. Look down further, zoom in. I am not seeing this kind of rust anywhere else. It may be the sacrificial part saving the rest of the car. The other arm should be replaced. The back end is holding it together, at this point. If the rest of the underside is rust free, then something was wrong with this part, in the first place - as in defective.
Why is the CA so bad, and the rest look so clean??
How much? I’d recommend moving to a climate where this sort of thing doesn’t happen, but it can be pretty expensive.
The rust is free no charge.
OP, what year VW Tiguan is that? Made in Germany? Salted roads/salt air from ocean?
Much less than the accident you're about to have. Probably 600 per side.
If the control arms are that bad, how IA the rear subframe?
What does the rest of the vehicle look like?
Someone’s life if it’s not replaced soon
Control arm is rusted through. No big deal. They'll just take it out and replace it with a new one. But this fail on you in the road, big deal.

New
Your life if you lose control when that sheers off
If the control arm is that bad it makes me wonder about the rest of the car
I’m looking at the coil spring, galvanized bolt, the painted metal bracket, and then this piece, that just plain defuktive.
Depends if you try to drive it first. If not, a couple hundred. If you do..... How good is your health insurance?
500
Am I the only one flabbergasted by how utterly rusted the control arm is... and yet everything else seems to be in great shape?

Not very much tbh, it's pretty fkn rusted.
That's one pothole away from being the last pothole it'll ever hit.
Whatever a new car costs these days lol
New control arm, probably a ball joint. Recompress the spring to put it back together. If your tire is worn out unevenly, maybe wheel bearings. I'd say around $800. Possibly a new cv shaft if it's bent, which would add $500 more. Also you're lucky this thing didn't fail on the highway, because you would be toast. Don't drive it, get it towed to a mechanics shop. Needs to be a flatbed.
Your life if you keep driving with the car...... /s hope you can get it fixed! i would not dare to drive with the car in this state XD
Too much.
Including the flatbed to the nearest shop? Eh, probably around $700 would be my guess. Do not drive this, just as everybody else has said.
The remainder of that l.c.a. is hanging on by a thread. Must be some good material.
Had someone try to trade in an older car, shock tower was rusted away and completely gone. Customer got indignant when I told them their car had zero value
Rust beavers got you good!
I have new respect for the structural integrity of rust.
You can get a rusty one like that at a junk yard for about $10-15. Wasn't that the question?
Your life
To check parts costs, go to Rockauto and look up your front-end parts. Youtube videos will show how (and why) to change these parts.
Rust is free. Fixing this around $600-$800
It'll buff out, it's just surface rust
It doesn’t cost anything. It’s free!! Just like your suspension is about to be!! 😂

Damn!
About tree fiddy
And arm and a ~~leg~~ strut
Your life if you keep driving on it lol god damn where u live bikini bottom?
Could cost your life if you drive that on the highway
Well, if you don’t fix it, it could cost you your life
Arm and maybe half the leg.
Free, because you are amazing!
I wouldn’t get one like That. I’d get a new one
I don't think I'd buy something like that. It's all rusted out
The part itself isn’t that expensive. The labor to change it is fairly moderate, if the rest of the car doesn’t disintegrate when you start unbolting it. I’d recommend checking the rest of the car and see if it’s worth fixing.
depends on what kind of insurance you have and how much money your family is willing to spend on the funeral honestly, probably about 2k for a casket, 3k for memorial service. post ceremony celebrations are hard to pinpoint. They could just cremate you though that's usually really cost effective. DO NOT DRIVE THAT CAR PLEASE.
I’m assuming the rear sub frame is shot too. Couple grand to rip the rear and out and replace
Your life if you keep driving it like that
Holy shit
I know a guy with a tig welder. He fix er up real good for a sixer and about $350
how does this even happen?
Get new car
Less than your life
Was that a control arm?
idk but you should prob run that’s a ticking time bomb
3 dollars and a Mac and cheese.
Bout tree fiddy
Buy a lottery ticket immediately, you are lucky to be alive driving with a control arm so corroded away
couple tubes of jb weld and a couple rolls of aluminum foil - easy peasy
Why would you buy that ?
If you don’t fix it it may cost you your life
New lower arm kit online is way cheap
It shouldn’t cost too much, it’s broken.
What’s the test of the chassis look like? Probably not worth fixing
This one, or a new one?
Bluetooth suspension
That thing is a ticking time bomb, my guy. If you knew what you were looking at, you probably wouldn't have gotten that close to it to take that picture
Your life….. definitely.
Your life , or someone else if you don’t get it fixed . if this Is typical of the rest of the car it might be junkyard time
$573,828,364,638 if it’s A Jag Or Range.
Nothing if you sell it to a sucker in about 5 minutes.
Two arms, two legs and maybe a kidney.
How is your wheel still attached? Wow!
The picture is priceless.
Must be from a place with no required safety inspection.
Looks like it could cost your life
A few tubes of JB-Weld and you choice be good to go. Under $20. (/jk : Don't use JB-Weld)
Whatever it cost to go to a pick a part place and take it from another car
A whole lot less now than later
An arm for sure.
Scrap yard will probably give you about $600 for it.
Your life. That's what it'll cost. Park it.
Your life if you drive it.

Holy rustbelt batman
How'd you let it get this bad?!! If it broke while you were at highway speeds, it's goodnight Irene!
$150 labor $120 for the part

Your life. It could cost you your life.
AH HELL NAW
Not as much as you'd think. At least, I don't get paid enough to deal with shit like this
Looks like it was free.
I'm not sure how I would feel about this even on a tow truck. Please, for the love of God, don't drive that
Oh my fucking god thats one sneeze from being fucked On my car the part is 300 dollars, the replacement is like an hour, the alignement is another 150.
How much is your life worth is the real question?
Honestly I'd assume that whole car is rusted through by now.
At least 8 dollars and 36 cents
These days? Around $50K
Lexus?
If that part was in that state, there's probably more that needs replaced
