I’ve had meyle hd front control arms for a few years now and they’ve been fine but my e36 is just a summer daily so I don’t push it very hard.

Pros: fine for years
Cons: not pushed hard
Vehicle: BMW

But you have to make a differential between Meyle standard and Meyle HD, it's night and day difference in quality, all HD parts have a 4 year guarantee, I think the regular have 1 year. I have a few years of experience when it comes to quality of control arms

Pros: HD parts have guarantee
Cons: standard quality is low
Vehicle: Volkswagen Passat B5

My CAs were replaced at around 50k km by my best guess (close to before I got my car). They are Meyle HDs, and no issues here (not that there should be any at this mileage).

Pros: no issues, good reliability
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 50000 km

I have 51,900 miles on my car and it just started to squeak like a 1970's car when I turn the wheel- REALLY LOUD. So I've read all the articles and I know this is a known issue for control arms...

Pros: known issue, control arms
Cons: squeak like 1970s car
Mileage: 83525 km

Tesla Control arm

I have a Model3 RWD, the heavy batteries cause the arms to crack, just by weight alone with road conditions in southern Cali. Both of my arms on both sides were denied by one service center. However, a month later, I took it to a different service center and they processed all of it under warranty.

Cons: arms crack, design flaw
