 Description of the problemWhile backing my car out of a parking space, i heard a pop and rear of the car dropped. I got out and saw the left rear of the car was lower, top of tire not visible. The dealership where i purchased my car new (sept. 12, 2012) was only 3 miles away on secondary roads, so i took my car there to be looked at. The dealer called me back the next day and told me the left rear lower control arm had broken and right rear lower control arm was cracking in the same place and needed to be replaced. The service advisor and service manager both said they have never seen anything like this happen before on a six year old car.*dt consumer stated failure of suspension on both rear passenger side.
