## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, one of two brackets used to bolt the front control arm to the body structure may not have been welded to specifications.  Depending on the strength of the weld seams, the control arm could gradually loosen and ultimately separate from its bracket resulting in control difficulty or possible loss of vehicle control.  Correction:  Vehicles will be inspected and suspect control arms will be replaced.
