Saw this one on reddit. OP said people taking delivery after July 2018 should check their welds on the passenger side rear lower control arm bracket. Wonder if anyone else has seen a weld this bad?

I havent seen the control arm issue, but have seen track bar mounts failing. Seems like FCA has some horrible welders employed at this point.

I haven't seen any this bad as well but mine don't look great- and yes mine has been identified to be inspected as part of the recall.

I know this an old thread, but mine sheared clean off on the passenger side recently. No weld AT ALL on the inside behind the gas tank. I promise it was a surprise when it happened. Like getting rear ended when the control arm pole vaulted the rear axle in the air! 2018 JL Rubicon Unlimited. If anyone knows of a replacement part, I'd appreciate it.
