Getting my hole cut tomorrow at the shop. Been like this for about 2 weeks and have hit some pretty mean potholes. Has anyone ever broken their uca or any other part like this?

And mine knocks on the passenger side more often than the driver's. It's sort of odd.

Mine does a lot.

Its not just pot holes that makes the control arm hit. It's also dips and uneven pavement like on bridges or also known as roads in Toronto.

Mine does a lot on little dips and bumps. Potholes sound like (in the words of Jeff) "I'm hitting a brick wall." Dips and bumps sound like hammering. What really bothers me though is that it happens a lot more often on the passenger side.

Your roads must be immaculate then. Just got my hole cut. No more knocking. Sweeeet. Can finally enjoy driving again.
