(You save)
Tie your steering linkage to the front wheels with the Dorman - OE Solutions Front Outer Steering Tie Rod End 544-469. It drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe, 2009-2019 Toyota Corolla, and 2009-2014 Toyota Matrix, transmitting steering input from the linkage to the front wheel while allowing the suspension to move through its travel.
Front outer position: serves as the outer tie rod end that links the steering assembly to the front-wheel steering knuckle.
Articulating ball stud and socket: lets the wheel steer left and right while the suspension cycles up and down.
Signs it may need replacing: loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, and clunking or knocking when turning or over bumps — if a worn tie rod end is the cause, this replaces it.
Threaded adjustment: threads onto the inner tie rod to set toe, so a wheel alignment should follow installation.
Sold individually; order two for a complete side-to-side replacement.
It is the front outer tie rod end, connecting the steering linkage to the front wheel's steering knuckle.
What vehicles does the 544-469 fit?
It's a direct-fit replacement for the 2009-2010 Pontiac Vibe, 2009-2019 Toyota Corolla, and 2009-2014 Toyota Matrix. Check the Buyer's Guide tab for your exact vehicle.
What are signs a tie rod end may need replacing?
Signs may include loose or wandering steering, uneven front tire wear, and clunking or knocking when turning or over bumps. Have the cause diagnosed before replacing.
Should I replace tie rod ends in pairs?
It's not required, but replacing both sides together often gives more balanced, predictable steering. Sold individually — this listing is for one.
Is a wheel alignment needed after installation?
Yes. Replacing a tie rod end changes toe, so have a wheel alignment performed afterward.
