Right rear control arm bent, leading to massive mis-alignment, and the ruining of 4 tires. Saab claims it resulted from "energy" not a defect. They say I must have driven it "too hard." I in fact babied the car, driving moderately, hitting no major bumps or holes. State farm claims it probably resulted from metal fatigue, not an impact. Won't pay because not impact related. I believe the arm was defective. Ordinary driving should not lead to a bent suspension.
