Dorman - OE Solutions Lateral Arm P/N:524-785
Help keep the rear wheels correctly located on your SUV with the Dorman control arm, part number 524-174. This rear upper lateral arm is a direct replacement for the 2013-2019 Ford Escape. Dorman engineered it to fit and perform like the original equipment on that application, so it installs in place of a worn factory arm. See the "Vehicles it fits" section for engine and trim details.
As a rear upper lateral arm, it connects the rear wheel assembly to the chassis. It helps hold the wheel's position and alignment as the suspension moves over the road.
Signs this arm may need replacing include clunking or knocking from the rear over bumps, uneven or accelerated tire wear, and a loose or wandering feel. If a worn rear upper lateral arm is the cause, this control arm for the 2013-2019 Ford Escape replaces it. Have the rear alignment checked after installation.
