Control Arm Bushing

[PTGT04]

I have heard of problems with the control arm bushings on PT Cruisers. My mother has a 2003 PT GT, it has 18000mi. she was complaining of it pulling to the right when driven, it was under warranty so she took it to the dealer, they told her it was the control arm bushings and that they also had to order parts so they could align it. I have a 2004 GT with 38000mi. and was wondering if there would be any other symptoms, as of now mine handles and steers fine. Thanks in advance for any help. PTGT04

On the front lower control arms, the rear vertical bushing literally "falls" out of it's pocket. It's clear as day when you look at it and VERY common with the PT's.

Usually people bring em in complaining of a knocking over bumps (because the control arm is now contacting the crossmember).
