Default DANGER-EBay Control Arms!

I bought the some ebay control arms that looked pretty trick but this weekend with less than 200 miles on the car I was at the Pleasanton GG show. We left the show to drive through town and when over some easy railroad tracks and heard a loud noise and the car began to pull- well here's the pics






the spacers that go inside the cross shaft broke- the company states that it was a manufacturing defect and has been corrected.

here's my concern; I was only going 5 mph, what if I was rockin it in some twisties this would have been REAL UGLY. How many other control arms are out there? what would you guys do? should I believe that the problem is handled. should I demand payment for my time? Thankfully outside of a dented header tube nothing else was damaged.

what would you guys do?- Chris
