We have a 2018 Holden Acadia done 43300 kms. It has just failed a WOF due to worn rear inner front arm bushes. How long would you expect these bushes to last and should they be replaced under warranty ?

Hi there,
I would not expect a suspension component failure on a 3yr old vehicle used under normal driving conditions. You may need a second opinion as there can be an accepted level of cracking on a rubber bush because of their design, or the manufacturer has an allowable tolerance before it's considered a failure.
