Control Arms Too Difficult To Get To

CarComplaints.com Notes: Kiplinger's named it one of the greatest cars of the 21st century, we wouldn't go that far but for the price it's a nice ride.

Just make sure to keep an eye on these acceleration problems reported to NHTSA.

The control arms are a relatively easy fix on most cars. However, on the Lexus RX 350, the entire engine has to be lifted out and the engine mount needs to be pulled. A part that is inevitably going to need to be replaced from wear and tear should not be that inaccessible! The cost of the labor to replace the control arms was more than the value of my car, resulting in me having to trade it in! So just be aware, when your control arms go, you're screwed.
