Control Arms
Has anyone here had the rear control arms replaced under the TSB? Did you have excessive tire wear or vibration? How easy was it to get the work done under warranty? My car has no obvious symptoms but is out of line, both front & back. I replaced the OEM tires with snow tires last December and put new Michelins on this month, so I have no evidence of odd tire wear to show. Would an allignment alone be enough, or should the arms be replaced anyway?

I had mine silver 07 done in late Feb. of this year. I had excessive wear, my original tires only lasted 25k. before they were bald. The dealer replaced the arms only after they saw the wear. I had brought the wear to their attention at 15k, but they said the wear was from having my tires inflated to 44 psi, and not the factory setting. All civics 07 have the bad arms, get them replaced. The dealer said my tires had too many miles on them for the pro ration to help. Get it done before it eats your tires.
