I lock my vehicle at all times so I have no idea when or how they got it Dealership (Satan) can not find any (They did not even know what a Comp TA Was), I was wondering of anyone might know were I could get a replacement

I would think you would have to buy both even from a Dealer?

YES! Thank you, I know I will end up buying both. But the damn dealer can not seem to find or order them. Damn, I took my car in because they are the only place in town that can align my car (Sits Low) and it pulls to the right worse then when I took it in. So now I drive 159Miles to a different (Better) dealership to get it done.

Been there!
As a note, always check tire pressures before alignment. You could pick up a nail and have pull from a low tire. Not saying that's your problem but worth a quick check. I've seen many shops that don't have the alignment tool for our cars and use the "set the toe and go" method when a full alignment is needed (waste). Also if your steering wheel is off center from being lowered they can re-center it with the new align. Good Luck.

Thanks, yeah it was good when i first picked up the car. Had some new rubber put on about two months later and noticed she pulled a little to the right. Not bad enough to bother me so I put it off for a couple of months. Then my tire shop, someone I know and trust told me my car sets to low for them to do the alignment. So I had to take it to the dealership. They told me my right control arm is bent and thats what all the problems were trying to align it. But I was under there installing my new clutch not a week before and I know it was not bent because I inspected the car. No use in trying to take them to court. Cost more then a new Arm, Just never going to take my car to them again.

Press the issue with the dealer's managment. Maybe write a letter/email the dealer's owner. They are BY LAW responsible for all cars and their contents on their lot. They have insurance to cover theft.

The stealership should pay for them.
