Dorman - OE Solutions Steering Tie Rod End P/N:544-544
Help keep steering input traveling cleanly from the rack to the front wheels with the Dorman - OE Solutions front outer tie rod end, part number 544-469, a direct-replacement tie rod for Toyota Corolla (2009-2019), Toyota Matrix (2009-2014) and Pontiac Vibe (2009-2010) models. Dorman built it to take the place of the original equipment tie rod end on these applications. It has been through an industry-leading evaluation process intended to deliver smooth, safe operation.
A tie rod end connects the inner tie rod to the steering knuckle, so the wheel turns as the rack moves. Over time its joint can wear and develop play. That play may show up as loose or wandering steering, clunking when turning, or uneven tire wear. If a worn outer tie rod end is the cause, this unit replaces it.
