Abstract
A turbocharger wastegate actuator arm includes a first section made from a rigid composite material, a second section made from a rigid composite material, and a third section made from a flexible polymeric material positioned between and interconnecting the first and second sections and adapted to allow angular deflection of the first section relative to the second section, wherein a longitudinal axis of the first section and a longitudinal axis of the second section define a first angle when the actuator arm is in the first position and the longitudinal axis of the first section and the longitudinal axis of the second section define a second angle when the actuator arm is in the second position, the first angle being greater than the second angle.
