Default Lower Control Arm

During my last alignment, at a Nissan dealership, I was told that my front passenger lower control arm needed to be replaced. They refused to use my extended warranty to replace it, citing that it was an easily damaged part and even curbing a wheel could completely ruin it.

They also said I may need a strut replacement.

So are they right about it being so easily damaged? What do you think of the alignment readings? I have curbed a wheel or three but nothing that I can remember would break the damn thing. I need some direction here.
