I have a 2003 Subaru Forester which I just got back from the dealer for replacement of both front control arms. After much persuasion I convinced the dealer to do the replacement as a recall , but I had to supply replacement rear bushings. The bushings I supplied are aftermarket (Febest) and did not include the two washer shaped bushings that fit on either end of the main rear bushing so I told the dealer to reuse the old washer type bushings. They left the end bush pieces out. Any idea how much of a problem this is?
