Front lower suspension arms

Just failed my MoT on front lower suspension arms. When I check back, I had these replaced two years ago - about 20k miles. Anyone know how long these things are supposed to last? I can see lots of other posts here about similar issues, but not much of an answer about how long they should last. Any enlightenment gratefully received! Thanks.

They should last a lot longer than that. My guess would be the bolts weren't tightened with the car on the ground. Thumbs Up

Bit worrying... It was done by an official Land Rover dealer...

Are you absolutely sure you're outside the 2 years otherwise you might have some luck claiming on the LR warranty?
