ABSTRACT:
A suspension arm for a vehicle wheel suspension having an intended breakpoint is described. The suspension arm is provided on a first end with a stub axle for receiving a vehicle wheel, and on at least one second end with the hole for receiving a fastener for fastening a bearing to connect the suspension arm to a subframe of a vehicle body. The suspension arm has an intended breakpoint designed to fail because of strain overload due to deformation during an accident, and the intended breakpoint is designed in such a way that the fastener breaks out of the hole.
