Description of the problem	Car was in motion approximately 30 mph. A small bump was hit in the road and the car started to fishtail slightly. I pulled off to the side of the road to inspect the car and determined i would be able to make it home (less than 1 mile away) going at a slow ~10 mph speed. The passenger side rear lower control arm had fractured towards the center of the car upon inspecting the vehicle further in my driveway. The wheel was close to the top of the wheel well (~2-3 inches) and was at a slight inward angle. The following day the car was towed and the rear passenger side lower control arm was replaced under the dealer extended warranty. The driver side lower control arm was not replaced under the dealer warranty as it had not shown immediate signs of failure. Had the warranty not covered it, the parts and labor would have totaled around $800. The vehicle had 66,125 miles when it entered the dealer.
