I have posted here about having the front lower control arm bushings changed on my PT Cruiser. The bushings were $40 each and $288 labor. After checking with three different Chrysler dealers, I was told by all three that they can't be replaced, the whole control arms @$160 each have to be replaced. The back ones can have the bushings replaced. So, before I questioned the garage (not a dealer) that did the work, I took the car to a friend who has a tranny shop. We looked under the car, the front bushings had been replaced. Any idea what is going on? BTW, I have the old bushings, they are in the bag that the new ones come in. The part # is that of the rear bushings. I'm confused.
