About Track Control Arms

In motor vehicle suspension systems, a control arm is a suspension connection between the chassis and the suspension upright or hub that carries the wheel. The basic function of the track control arm is to provide improved road holding and shock absorption.

The component is known as the Skoda track control arm. The track control arm has a wishbone or “A” shape on the bottom, which bears most of the impact of the shock. It absorbs the shock and keeps the wheels firmly on the road for a more comfortable ride.

The performance of the track control arm is augmented by the control arm bushings, which are an equally important part of the vehicle's suspension system. These are situated between the control arm and the frame of the vehicle and have the effect of further dampening vibration between the wheels and the frame, cushioning the ride, minimising driving noise and preventing metal from coming into contact with metal.

Signs that the control arm bushings may be failing are handling problems, loose steering and uneven tyre wear. Shaking, thumping or rattling noises may also be evident, especially when turning or braking. Replacement is the only possible option when the Skoda track control arm component begins to fail.

Skoda trivia

• In 2004, 1.8 million Skoda cars were registered in the Czech Republic. There are only 3.7 million cars in total that have been registered there, which means that almost half of all the cars available in the Czech Republic are Skodas. Every Skoda sold there is matched by a planted tree.
• The 2018 Skoda Kodiaq RS is a seven-seater that set a new speed record in the car that has yet to be beaten (the car was driven by Top Gear presenter Sabine Schmitz).
• The Skoda Kodiaq has some surprising features, many of which have been seen on later Skoda models. Some of the more 'out there' accessories include the ice scraper that is stored in the fuel cap and the umbrella that has its own dedicated space in the driver's door.
• The Skoda company was formed when one of the founders, Václav Laurin, got some bad customer service from a bicycle repair business.
• The team that designed the Lamborghini Miura and the Countach also designed the Skoda Favorit.
