2013 Jetta 2.5L- replacing lower control arm bushings
 

Hello,

I took my car in for an alignment yesterday and was told that my control arm bushings were torn and needed to be replaced before an alignment could be done. They quoted me at $1100 for the control arms replacement and alignment. When these bushings go bad, does the whole arm have to be replaced or can just the bushings be replaced by themselves?
