Hi,
I recently when in to my Honda dealership for routine maintenance and they mentioned that my compliance bushings were worn and recommended replacement. They were looking to charge me around $350. My question is two fold:
1: How often should I expect to replace compliance bushings (and what are they exactly)? The car is not heavily driven.
2: Is this a decent price? Is this something that should be covered under a certified pre-owned warranty?

I bought the car in 06, certified pre owned.

The compliance bushing is part of your front suspension, it is made from rubber and is in the front lower control arms. If the compliance bushing worn/torn it may cause noise, vibration or aglinment out of specs. The bushing have to press it out from a press machine.
