2003 saturn vue arm stabalizers connected to wheel and sway bar broke off

I am not sure if it is the sway bar, but there is a curved long bar that stretches from front left wheel to the right front wheel. on each side there is suppose to be another small arm, this time vertical rather than horizontal, which connects the long bar to the wheel next to the suspension, one has broken off from the long bar and on the other side the little arm is completely gone. i am wondering what these parts are exactly, how much they cost, and how to fix. please help. lost.

Had similar problem with 2003 Dodge GC. Replaced the parts you mention + rack & pinion, then to fix the now noticable whining noise, replaced power steering pump and pulley. Fortunately was under an extended warrentee at 46k miles.

SOURCE: I just had my wheel bearings replaced on both

Vues are bad for having all hub bearings make noise,check your rear ones.Or the ones you didn't have replaced.If it's all wheel drive check the propshaft center carrier bearing.Common to fail & make noise.hope this helps

SOURCE: 2003 Protege5 front suspension knocking noise

Yes there is a bearing on the front stuts on the top under the upper strut mount and it is plastic. But the last guy was right it is most likely your struts, or it is your stabilizer links. There doesn't have to be much play in the links to make a tonne of noise. I replaced all my struts myself and it solved the problem for me. You can buy fully assembled strut kits for most veh so you don't have to compress the spring...just dont loosen fully the top middle large bold on top of the strut lol.

We have a 2003 saturn vue tha sway bar broke , easy to disconnect, now we got a new sway bar . My question is how do we install the curvy sway bar back to its spot ?What part(s) may need taken off to get...

remove the 2 pivot points under the car on the chassis sub frame . Disconnect the rods at either end of the sway bar at the rubbers . I would get all new rubbers for the sway bar and pivots before reassembly. Sway bars normally do not break as they are spring steel so it may have been weak or rubbing on a pivot from a missing rubber

94 ford thunderbird front end wheel assembly chassis bar that connects lower control arm to frame of vehicle in front end.

The bar would be the sway bar.

The parts that connect the sway bar to the lower control arm are called the sway bar links.

Why does my 2004 Saturn Vue squeak constantly while I am driving straight and turning corners. I will say the squeak is a little quieter when taking curves. I have brought it in twice. Once to Saturn who...

If it is not your brakes, or your rear shoes, being so they have been replaced, you may have a wheel bearing bad in the rear, or you may have a caliper that is not releasing pressure on the slides causing the brake to drag just a little. I think sense it is coming from the rear of the vehicle i am going to lean towards it being a wheel bearing. One more thing you can try, push the emergency or parking brake on half way when you hear the squeak not enough to lock up the brakes but enough so the brakes touch the drum. If the squeak stops then your parking brakes are you culprit!

What is the purpose of the swine bar? The bar right by the tire. it has broke in my vehicle.

You mean the sway bar? If so, the sway bar or roll bar, or sometimes called the stabilizer bar. The sway bar has two functions.
  1. To prevent body roll or lean in a turn.
  2. It is used to control the handling of the vehicle and is tuned to your specific vehicle based on many characteristics.
You most definitely need to replace the broken sway bar. A vehicle with a broken sway bar is not a safe vehicle. The handling is not what it should be and this can be dangerous if you have to make a quick maneuver. Replace it, ASAP.
