Default Rear Control Arms

I found a 2023 coupe that CarFax indicates a rear control arm was replaced.
My "spider sense" says there was a curb accident.

Are there any issues with C8 rear control arms?

i haven’t seen any posts on issues. Do a search and check. I track and daily drive my car. Even jack up the rear via the control arm to get my 18in rims to go on. Full drop won’t allow the barrel to clear the control arm.
